Leeds United will face Dean Smith’s Aston Villa on Sunday.
Leeds United forward Patrick Bamford has given his take on Aston Villa to The Yorkshire Evening Post.
Marcelo Bielsa’s side will take on Villa away from home at Villa Park in the Championship on Sunday afternoon.
Bamford, who joined Leeds from Championship rivals Middlesbrough in the summer transfer window for a fee reported by The Yorkshire Evening Post to be worth £7 million, has spoken highly of the Villans.
“It’s going to be a big test,” Bamford told The Yorkshire Evening Post about Villa. “They’ve scored a lot of goals in the last few games and they’re not having a problem there but it’s going to be interesting. We’ll be up for it.”
Exciting game
Villa are a rejuvenated team under manager Dean Smith and are back in the race for the Championship playoffs.
The Villans have gone seven games without defeat, and playing against Leeds at home will give them an advantage on Sunday.
Leeds, though, are in a very good run of form and are winning matches without playing particularly well.
Bielsa has improved many of the Leeds players, who are showing determination and energy throughout the 90 minutes.
Leeds are at the top of the Championship table at the moment, while Villa currently find themselves eighth in the standings.
