Leeds United striker Patrick Bamford is fit to face Middlesbrough, although he is not “in his prime” after a long layoff, according to manager Daniel Farke. The Whites manager stated in his pre-match news conference [13 August] that he had a completely healthy team to pick from for his side’s EFL Cup first-round match, but noted that Bamford had missed 11 weeks of pre-season training.

Karl Darlow, a goalkeeper many Championship clubs would rate as their number one, will undoubtedly make his fourth…
