Marcelo Bielsa’s Leeds United will face Derby County at Elland Road in the Championship on Saturday afternoon.
Leeds United will be looking to maintain their good start to the season with victory over Derby County at Elland Road in the Championship this afternoon.
Marcelo Bielsa’s side will head into the match against Derby on the back of 2-0 victory over Yorkshire rivals Barnsley away from home in the league.
The West Yorkshire outfit are at the top of the league table at the moment with 16 points from seven matches, level on points with second-placed Swansea City, who are behind on goal difference.
Meanwhile, Derby currently find themselves 19th in the Championship table with seven points from as many matches, just two points above the relegation zone.
This is how Leeds and Derby will line up at Elland Road in the Championship this afternoon:
Meanwhile, Leeds head coach Marcelo Bielsa has praised goalkeeper Kiko Casilla ahead of this afternoon’s match against Derby.
The 32-year-old Spanish goalkeeper did not play well for the Whites in the second leg of their Championship playoff semi-final tie against the Rams at Elland Road last season.
Derby won the tie and progressed to the playoff final, which they lost against Aston Villa.
Bielsa told Leeds Live about Casilla: “Kiko has a solid character. I can’t imagine his performance will be linked to his last game against Derby.”
