Hull City face Leeds United at the KCOM Stadium on Tuesday.
The Hull City forward Jarrod Bowen has admitted that Tuesday’s opponents Leeds United ‘look very good’ this season.
Leeds have started strongly under Marcelo Bielsa’s management and sit second in the Championship standings ahead of their trip across the county to Hull.
Reports earlier this year suggested Bowen was a player Bielsa would have liked to add to his squad (Yorkshire Evening Post), but the 21-year-old is instead focused on bringing down the Whites when they visit the KCOM Stadium.
“They look very good, don’t they,” Bowen told the Hull Daily Mail when asked about Leeds.
“We knew Middlesbrough (with whom Hull shared a 1-1 draw on Saturday) was going to be a hard game and know Tuesday will be too.
“We will just play our game and I don’t think anyone can stop us, on our day, when everyone is singing and dancing.”
Bowen has been, arguably, Hull’s best player since the Tigers’ 2017 relegation from the Premier League, scoring or assisting 19 goals in 52 Championship outings.
But the former Hereford United player has yet to inflict any damage on Leeds, against whom Nigel Adkins’ side lost 1-0 and drew 0-0 last season.
Hull must win against the Whites to ensure they do not drop into the relegation places after the midweek round of matches.
