Farke has options available to him after Wober's run out against Luton and with Junior Firpo returning to the squad after serving his three-match suspension there is an expectation he will make an immediate return to the side. While that may be the case, the Leeds boss has highlighted Byram's importance to his team.

Leeds United are awaiting the results of a scan to find out the extent of an injury picked up in midweek, as they prepare to visit Blackburn Rovers.

Luton Town then visited Elland Road on Wednesday and Farke's men regained first place from Yorkshire rivals Sheffield United with a 3-0 triumph, as Sam Byram and Joel Piroe had them two up at the break and Daniel James put the game out of sight in the final 10 minutes.
