Leeds United are set to take on Manchester United at home this afternoon, with their number one, Illan Meslier keen to return to the Ellan Road pitch.
Leeds have played back-to-back away games, drawing 3-3 with Aston Villa and then losing 3-0 to Everton. Such circumstances have led to it being almost a month since they turned out at Elland Road.
Should Leeds replace Bielsa?Yes!
No!

Their last home game was way back on the 22nd January where Newcastle left 1-0 winners. A return home excited the Frenchman, who conveyed his eagerness to return on his Instagram, with the following post.
A return to Elland Road provides Leeds with a chance to return to winning ways in front of their home fans. Marcelo Bielsa’s side need to pick up three points again sooner rather than later as they continue to slip into a relegation scrap.

After fellow strugglers Everton got the better of them last time out, they now have just a point advantage over the Toffees who have a game in hand. The Whites find themselves in 15th place, just six points clear of the drop.
It’s a crucial period coming up for Leeds who will be desperate to put breathing space between them and the bottom three, rather than slipping towards it like they are currently.
