'OMG', 'Buzzing' - Leeds United fans react as Bielsa makes 'big call' vs Southampton

The Whites are looking to bounce back from successive defeats against Wolves and Arsenal, and could move back into the top half with a win over the Saints.

For their part, Ralph Hasenhuttl’s men ended a long run of losses with a 1-1 draw against Chelsea at the weekend, and could overtake the Whites if they come away from Elland Road with all three points.

Bielsa’s only change for the match sees summer signing Diego Llorente come into the side ahead of youngster Jamie Shackleton. It will be the Spaniard’s third Premier League appearance of the campaign.
