Leeds v Sheffield Wednesday Match Preview

Leeds fans have had a chance to breathe since surrending leads at the death in successive matches against Blackburn and Hull a couple of weeks ago, but you can be sure that the pressure will start to ramp up quickly from now.

Ther is plenty of anxiety among the Elland Road faithful as they seek to return to the Premier League and avoid the mistakes of last season, but the performances of Illan Meslier are not helping.

It will be very interesting to see whether the French goalkeeper returns in goal this week after sitting out the FA Cup win over Harrogate, having made another costly error against Hull.

It was the first time Daniel Farke has been drawn into something like criticism for one of his players, and for a squad as strong as Leeds' it's fair to say the goalkeeper is underperforming - especially when compared to his contemporaries.

If he does return to the XI, you would expect Wednesday to throw quite a lot at him from set pieces and long range shots, so Leeds' job will be to stop that from happening and at Elland Road, that hasn't really been a problem.

This game should be another comfortable win for Leeds, but with the pressure from the crowd around new signings and Meslier's form, don't be surprised if that tension mounts quickly and we get a tense game.

I caught up with Sky Sports & BBC pundit and former Sheffield Wednesday striker Clinton Morrison ahead of the game to see what he thought.

Now that is a big game.

Leeds are at home so you probably make Leeds favourites, but Sheffield Wednesday have been good under Danny Rohl.

You don't know which Sheffield Wednesday are going to turn up, they've got some talented players that make it difficult and can play on the counterattack.

I still think Sheffield Wednesday maybe have an outside chance of getting into the play-offs and that's credit to Danny Rohl. He's a top manager, but I think Leeds are really strong at home and the 12pm kick-off, it’s going to be a great occasion for the fans.

It pains me to go against my old club, but I will go 2-1 to Leeds because their firepower will cause Sheffield Wednesday's defence a lot of problems.

We all love Leeds and we want Leeds to be in the Premier League because the stadium, the fans, the atmosphere is brilliant at Elland Road. And if you're a player and you can't get up for playing in front of those fans then something is seriously wrong with you

That's why I want them to get promoted this season because I just think a club like that should be in the Premier League.
