Key points

Leeds United manager Daniel Farke speaks to the media ahead of Tuesday's Carabao Cup match against Nottingham Forest. This match will start at 12:30 pm Indian time at City Ground. Farke praised Saturday's 1–0 win at the same ground, saying they had "no new injuries" and were expecting to go into their first cup match with "almost the same team".

Ilya Gruev, who suffered a meniscus injury in April, has now fully returned to team training. Farke reported that Gruev had been "partially involved" since last week, but that his return might be "a little early" for this match. "We want him to be in team training for at least two weeks before he is ready for selection. Every training session will help," he said.

Willy Gnonto and Gabriel Gudmundsson are also recovering from injuries, but have not yet returned to team training. Farke said, "It's great to start the Premier League season with a win. There's no substitute for the feeling of winning in the dressing room. A clean sheet in the first match and an away win is a perfect start."

However, Farke pointed out that the clash against Nottingham Forest is a "do or die" cup match, and both teams will be motivated to push forward. "Our league win is good for our morale and confidence, but it's a cup match," he said.

Talking about team selection, Farke said it will be about striking the "right balance" so that players are rested and the momentum is maintained. "You want the competition in the squad to be high, so there will be some changes, but I don't expect a completely different team," he explained.

Summer signing Nico Elvedi is "eligible to play and in very good shape" after a full pre-season, so his full debut is likely. When asked how important it would be for him to win the first domestic cup of his management career, he said, "We weren't very far last season."

"There's always a buzz around this club," Farke said of Leeds United's interest in Chelsea's Mikhailo Madric. "Sometimes we get linked with players I haven't even heard of," he said. They will remain "awake" until the last moments of the transfer window, but will only make deals that make "sense".

What will happen next

Leeds next face off against Nottingham Forest, an important cup match. Farke has described this match as 'do or die', from which it is clear that both the teams will be fully prepared to win. If Leeds wins this match, it will be another positive step for their season.
