Leeds boss Daniel Farke has warned his side against getting "over-motivated" before the home game with Championship leaders Leicester on Friday.

A ninth-straight league win would see the second-placed Whites close the gap to the Foxes to six points.

"It's important not to lose your cool and be over-motivated for such a game," Farke told BBC Radio Leeds.

"It has the same value as the other games we play. For the final table it is the same."

He added: "On the other hand it is a special game and it reminds you of when you first started to play football when you want to challenge yourself against the best possible opponent.
