Daniel Farke has chosen his lineup with one change in West Yorkshire for Leeds United’s Championship play-off semi-final matchup against Norwich City at Elland Road on Thursday night.
One change has been forced upon Daniel Farke ahead of Leeds United’s decisive play-off semi-final second leg with Norwich City. Sam Byram is not with the squad, with Joel Piroe chosen as the man to replace him in the starting line-up.
It’s unclear why Byram is missing, but without a pre-match press conference, there was always the chance of undisclosed injuries. It looks like it will mean Archie Gray returns to right-back, despite his impressive turn as the side’s attacking central midfielder on Sunday.
It also means Georginio Rutter retains his place in the XI despite a difficult run of form. should lead the attack with the Frenchman behind him. Joe Gelhardt is the new face on the bench after that reshuffle.In the event that Byram is not extended a contract this summer, it also signifies that he has played his final game at Elland Road for the Whites. If this is their last chance, Liam Cooper and Jamie Shackleton, who are both on the bench, are hoping to have a run out.
