Daniel Farke fires warning to Sunderland ahead of Leeds United clash
Leeds United boss Daniel Farke has warned upcoming opponents Sunderland that his team are in good shape ahead of tonight’s clash.
However, speaking to the Whites’ media team, he also had plenty of praise for the Black Cats, who have made a very decent start to the 2024/25 campaign under Regis Le Bris.
The Wearside club weren’t exactly heading in the right direction for much of last season, but Le Bris has done a decent job so far and guided his team to a win against Derby County in midweek.
Currently sitting at the top of the Championship table, they can be very pleased with their work, although they don’t face an easy assignment this evening, despite having the home advantage.
Leeds are also in the promotion mix despite suffering a couple of disappointing setbacks during the early stages of the season, with Daniel Farke’s men currently sitting in fifth place.
Ready to challenge for an automatic promotion place after suffering play-off final heartbreak in May, the Whites will be eager to secure a return to the Premier League at the second time of asking.
They may have lost several key players during the summer transfer window, but they have also brought in some very talented additions, including Ao Tanaka and Largie Ramazani.
Leeds will be heading to the Stadium of Light hoping to secure all three points – but they know it won’t be an easy task.

Farke spoke to the media ahead of this evening’s mouth-watering clash.
He had some kind words for his opponents, but also warned that his team are in a good place right now.
He told the Whites’ media team: “They’ve done pretty, pretty well so far.
“In these early stages you have to win as many points as possible and they’ve won many, many points so far, they’ve also won every home game so far.
