Marcelo Bielsa's side don't have too much time to dwell on their defeat to fierce rivals Manchester United on Sunday.

On Wednesday, the Whites will fulfil the away Liverpool game that was postponed in December due to a coronavirus outbreak in the Leeds camp.

The weekend's results has shifted the picture at both ends of the table for the two teams facing up at Anfield midweek.

Wins for Watford and Burnley have reshuffled the teams lingering in and around the drop zone, and Bielsa's side need points to stave off the resurgence in form by sides below them in the table.

Jürgen Klopp's side, meanwhile, will look to capitalise on Manchester City's defeat to Tottenham Hotspur.

The league leaders are now just six points ahead of Liverpool, a gap which could shorten to three points if they win their game in hand against Leeds.

Liverpool claimed a 3-0 victory in the teams' last encounter at Elland Road in September.

Mo Salah opened the scoring 20 minutes into the game, with Fabinho doubling the visitors' lead shortly after half-time.

Pascal Struijk was shown a red card on the hour mark for a challenge on Harvey Elliott which saw the teenager stretchered off the pitch with what was later found to be a dislocated ankle. The 18-year-old midfielder has since undergone surgery for the injury and has returned to action for Liverpool.

Sadio Mané sealed a convincing win for the Reds against 10-men Leeds by scoring a third goal in injury time.
