Daniel Farke makes Archie Gray decision – Leeds United confirmed XI v Southampton
Daniel Farke has made no changes to the Leeds United team which beat Norwich City 4-0 at Elland Road on Thursday 16 May.
The Whites will square off with Southampton at Wembley on Sunday (26 May) with a place in the Premier League up for grabs.
Farke has named an unchanged team after a confident display in the second leg of their Championship play-off semi-final (Leeds United X, 26 May)
Archie Gray keeps his position at right-back rather than moving into midfield.
Daniel Farke has an opportunity to become a Leeds United legend
This is the moment the entire 2023/24 season has been building toward.
When Leeds and Southampton were relegated from the Premier League last season, they would have both been keen to make an instant return to England’s top flight.
Today, one of those sides will do just that, while the other will experience the unique pain that is Wembley heartbreak.
That pain is a pain that the Whites know all too well, with the West Yorkshire side having never been promoted via the play-offs.
But this is a different Leeds team, and their supporters will be confident of finally ending that jinx against the Saints.
Should they go up, Farke would become an instant Leeds legend after just one season at Elland Road.
He has down all he can to get his team ready.
Now it is time for the players to make him, and the entire Leeds United fanbase, proud.
