Marcelo Bielsa dismisses suggestion Leeds United face extra pressure when playing last
and live on Freeview channel 276
Championship front-runners Leeds will again play last this weekend with Sunday's clash at Swansea City coming after second-placed West Brom and third-placed Brentford have taken in their Saturday games.
United could again find themselves second and with their cushion in the automatic promotion spots reduced to three points if Brentford win Saturday lunch-time's clash at Derby County and West Brom triumph in their Saturday afternoon clash at Blackburn Rovers.

Asked if there was any pressure from playing second, Bielsa said: "No I don't think because even if we play before or after, we are obliged to win anyway.
"The fact that we know the result of the opponents doesn't change anything that we are forced to win."
