Leeds United vs Harrogate Town LIVE as Daniel Farke shuffles the pack

Leeds United face off against Harrogate Town in a competitive match for the first time this afternoon with both sides at opposite ends of the English Football League.

Leeds, of course, are top of the Championship and gunning for a return to the Premier League while Harrogate are fighting to stay in the Football League all together. The Sulphurites are just five points above the drop zone in League Two having played a game more than the bottom two.

The hosts are without two of their strikers for the contest with Patrick Bamford sidelined for four weeks with a hamstring injury while Joel Piroe will sit out the contest due to muscle complaints.

Daniel Farke has already confirmed that Karl Darlow will start in goal to give him game time in the cup, although he has made it clear that Illan Meslier will remain as his number one goalkeeper.
