Marcelo Bielsa has guided his side to away victories over Bristol City, Wigan and Carabao Cup opponents Salford City in the early stages of the campaign.

The popular Argentine boss will hope to put distance between Leeds and the chasing pack as early as possible in the season, with their midweek opponents Brentford expected to be in the mix come May.

The Bees have recovered from an opening day defeat to Birmingham with a victory over Middlesbrough and a point against Hull, but remain unconvincing.

Head coach Thomas Frank has struggled to get his side firing without star forward Neal Maupay who moved to Brighton at the end of the transfer window.

Who will win? RadioTimes.com says…

Bielsa has given Leeds a swagger since his arrival. They already have an aura of a team destined for promotion, but there’s a long road ahead for the Yorkshire side.

Leeds have been firm at the back and dominant in possession, a tricky combination for any opponent to neutralise.

As mentioned, Brentford are struggling to replace the goals of Maupay, and they could suffer at Elland Road.
