Leeds United recovered from their blip in the FA Cup as they beat Derby County last weekend. Up next for the Whites is a big game against Fulham in the Premier League.
Fans will be hoping for a better result than last time out when Farke’s side conceded two late goals in a defeat to Newcastle at St. James’ Park. Despite the loss, Leeds are in quite good form – they have lost just one game in their last seven.
Since turning the corner in December, the Whites have been dangerous opposition to face, having picked points off Manchester United and Liverpool in recent weeks.
Leeds United handed major boost ahead of Fulham game
Up next for Daniel Farke’s side is a game at home to Fulham. The London side provided a tough test for Leeds when they faced off in the game at Craven Cottage. Ahead of the game, Marco Silva will be without some key players who are still on international duty at the AFCON.
Leeds on the other hand, will welcome a key player as Jayden Bogle has returned to training and could feature this weekend.
”It looks much better, they’re all available. Sebastiaan better than expected and back in training yesterday, it was not too bad.” Farke said in Thursday’s press conference.
”He should be available if nothing happens. Joe Rodon is back in training, it was just a precaution.
”Gabi Gudmundsson had a much needed break, it was good for him to get a rest. Jayden Bogle back in training since yesterday.”

Daniel Farke needs his side at full strength
At this point of the season, it is vital each and every player of the squad is at their best. Leeds cannot afford to be losing players to injuries. Daniel Farke has not been keen on using the full extent of his squad this season, but the FA Cup game against Derby showed that he can rely on his depth. And that is what the team will need from now till the end of the season.
It is going to be a long stretch with many games every week, the best the Whites can do is have everybody fit and ready to go when the time comes. Bogle will be a welcomed return to the starting eleven; he has been one of the more consistent performers at the club this season.
