The Whites boss knows his side must beat Southampton at Elland Road today and hope for the best at Portman Road

Daniel Farke faces two big decisions as he plans his starting XI for today's must-win Championship clash with Southampton at Elland Road. Leeds United fans are probably sick of hearing the equation, but they have to win this lunchtime and hope Huddersfield can do the same at Ipswich in order for the Whites to take second spot.

Of course that's not as simple as it sounds, it rarely is. While Welsh forward Daniel James will miss today's game, along with long-term absentees Stuart Dallas and Pascal Struijk, there remains a doubt over how much of a role Patrick Bamford and Connor Roberts can play.READ MORE: 'No real injury' - Leeds United and Daniel Farke baffled by player doubt for Southampton finale

The players underwent late fitness tests at Thorp Arch last night, with Farke admitting they had expected the bruising which meant Bamford was reduced to a spectator at Loftus Road, would have healed by now. Leeds United squad vs Southampton: Meslier, Darlow, Klaesson, Gray, Rodon, Firpo, Byram, Cooper, Cresswell, Shackleton, Roberts, Ampadu, Kamara, Gruev, Gnonto, Summerville, Anthony, Bamford, Piroe, Rutter, Gelhardt, Joseph.
