DANIEL FARKE says Leeds United must be aware of Liverpool's ability from dead balls tonight, despite the English champs sacking their set-piece coach.

The Reds have scored just three Premier League goals from set-pieces this season, with only Wolves holding a worse return. On Tuesday, Aaron Briggs paid the price for that stat.

Leeds top the set-piece chart with 12 goals scored but boss Farke insists that will have little bearing on this evening's match.

He said: “It’s an area where we are always focused and concentrated, because we know that we have big strength in this.
