Eight games into the season, Marcelo Bielsa’s Leeds United sits just three points above the relegation zone, six points back of surging Wolves ahead of a meeting at Elland Road on Saturday (start time 10am ET on NBCSN and online via NBCSports.com).
Wolves have won three straight matches after a 1W-4L start and have looked very good including a snap-to-life comeback defeat of Aston Villa last week.

Leeds United team news, injuries, lineup
Robin Koch and Luke Ayling are still a month or so away from returning, while Junior Firpo is a 50-50 proposition. Patrick Bamford remains out and Kalvin Phillips is missing, too, but Raphinha should be good to go.
Wolves team news, injuries, lineup
Jonny Otto is still out, as are Hugo Bueno, Yerson Mosquera, and Pedro Neto. Trincao could play but it depends on fitness upon his COVID-19 return.

Prediction
The idea of Ruben Neves and Joao Moutinho running a midfield against a Phillips-less Leeds is a major issue. We’ll call this Leeds 0-2 Wolves.
