Leeds and Wolves will lock horns for the second time this season in tonight's 8pm kick-off which United approach sat one place and two points above 12th-placed Wolves, and with a game in hand.

Klich says his side will be looking to win the game and be aggressive in the home side's half but the Polish international says United must avoid leaving themselves exposed to a pacy Wolves side on the break.

Asked if he felt Wolves were a good side with energy and power, Klich told BBC Radio Leeds: "They are, we could see that in the first game at Elland Road and I think they are going to be focused on a counter attack.

"They have got very quick players and very good midfielders with (Joao) Moutinho and (Ruben) Neves and they are an experienced team as well.

"Obviously they are not doing great this season but they still have very, very good players.

"We have to be careful because obviously we are going to try to win the game and try to play aggressive in their half and that's a perfect scenario for them because they can just counter attack us and that's why we have to be careful."
