Boss Daniel Farke received a massive boost ahead of the fixture with Largie Ramazani back in contention to feature after recovering from an ankle injury. Farke, though, declared at Friday’s pre-match press conference that the Belgian would only be an option from the bench. Farke also has Brenden Aaronson back available after the American attacker was unwell during the international break.
But Junior Firpo remains suspended as he serves the second-game of a three-match ban whilst Isaac Schmidt has joined club captain Ethan Ampadu and Ilia Gruev on the injured list. A win at Swansea would send Leeds top and this is the XI that we think Farke will send out in the bid to get it. Clear first choice keeper and a straightforward pick.
