    Derby v Leeds (17:00 BST)

    Leeds have a shocking record away against Derby County, losing nine and winning just one of their previous 12 matches.

    I am pretty sure Marcelo Bielsa is not going to be overly worried by that.

    High quality, high pressing and sky-high expectations are all around Leeds United since the legendary Argentine took over as boss.

    And the opening day win over Stoke City - one of the favourites for the title in the Championship - means those hopes are even higher.

    Bielsa is a "complete one-off".

    Don't take my word for it. Have a read of this by clicking this link, from a man who knows.

  3. Defending from the frontpublished at 17:25 British Summer Time 11 August 2018

    Derby v Leeds (17:30 BST)

    Energy, workrate and the much-talked about high press.

    Defending starts from the front. Marcelo Bielsa's Leeds epitomised that last time out.

    Kemar Roofe, Pablo Hernandez, Ezgjan Alioski and Samu Saiz all shone in the win over Stoke. Expect more of the same today.

  4. 'Power, strength and quality'published at 17:22 British Summer Time 11 August 2018

    Derby v Leeds (17:30 BST)

    Of all the new faces to arrive at Derby this summer, Martyn Waghorn was perhaps one of the more surprising.

    But Derby boss Frank Lampard was well chuffed to finally get his man after weeks of wrangling.

    The 28-year-old former Rangers and Leicester striker scored 16 goals for Ipswich last season.

    Lampard told BBC Derby Sport: "He plays the lone striker role with power, strength and real quality. I hope and expect him to bring that here.

    "He has a great attitude and a great physical strength. He can bring people into play and run in behind.”

    Thanks Tom. And breathe. Albeit very briefly before this cracker gets going.

    Derby manager Frank Lampard has smiled his way through pre-season, the first game of the season and the transfer window.

    Will the wily Marcelo Bielsa spoil his fun at Pride Park today?

    Nine new faces have arrived at Pride Park under Lampard.

    "I’m very pleased. We have done a lot of good business," he said. "All the players bring different attributes. We are in a pretty good place with a strong squad and we need to show it on the pitch.

    “I have tried to being some energy into the team particularly across the midfield and attack.”

    So QPR and Reading are the only Championship sides yet to pick up a point after two games.

    Of the team to have played twice, Swansea and Aston Villa are the only ones to still have a 100% record.

    In contrast, in League One, five sides have picked up two wins from two, while pre-season promotion hopefuls Exeter, Lincoln City and MK Dons have all taken maximum points so far in League Two.

  9. League Two headlinespublished at 17:07 British Summer Time 11 August 2018

    • Paul Tisdale oversaw a second win from two as MK Dons boss, but it took a 90th-minute goal from substitute Ousseynou Cisse to earn a 1-0 win over Bury
    • Exeter City seem to be adjusting to life without Tisdale, the Grecians easing to a 2-0 win at Morecambe under rookie boss Matt Taylor.
    • Lincoln are showing no signs off a play-off hangover from last season, the Imps thrashing Swindon Town 4-1.
