Team News

Sheff Wed
Leeds
  • Danny Röhl will be forced into a change on Friday night with Liam Palmer set to replace the injured Pol Valentin at right-back.
  • The Owls have four other injuries to contend with ahead of the visit of Yorkshire rivals Leeds.
  • Junior Firpo and Archie Gray were rested from the start against Stoke but should return to the starting XI on Friday.
  • Jamie Shackleton is a doubt for the trip to Hillsborough, while Jaidon Anthony has been ruled out.

Prediction

  • Sheffield Wednesday pulled off a critical victory at home against fellow strugglers Plymouth on Tuesday night with Djeidi Gassama's goal proving enough to seal a 1-0 win at Hillsborough. The Owls are soaring up the table and head into this game off the back of four straight Championship victories.
  • Dan James' first-half strike was all that Leeds needed to seal the three points against a relegation-threatened Stoke side at Elland Road in midweek. Daniel Farke's side have been in sensational form in 2024, winning ten and drawing one of their last 11 Championship matches ahead of this Yorkshire derby.
