What has been said ahead of the game?
Thomas Tuchel is expecting a high intensity game at Elland Road, while Jesse Marsch believes the Blues head coach shouldn't be on the touchline after his red card against Spurs.

Tuchel started: “I expect a high intensity game, a high pressing team from Leeds and a very emotional stadium.
"This is what we expect. Repetitive intensity, high pressing and a team that loves the chaos, a team of Leeds that has a high acceptance for mistakes.
"They don’t get frustrated by mistakes, they accept mistakes as chances to do counter-pressing and so on."
Marsch added: "I will be disappointed if they allow him to be on the bench. There is a simple rule in football. Whether it's soccer or football, if you get a red card you can't play the next match."
