Even start here. Brentford are looking to hit Leeds on the counter, but the home side have not been troubled too much.

Brentford have set out their stall early - the Bees are straight into Leeds, with top scorer Neal Maupay winning the ball back very early.

At the other end Moses Odubajo dallies on the ball deep in his own penalty area and Leeds almost capitalise.

Tyler Roberts gets the game under way for Leeds. Here we go!

The teams are out of the tunnel and in front of about 32,000 fans at Elland Road.

Can Leeds keep their spot at the top of the Championship or will the Bees end a five-game winless run in all competitions?

His team are usually great to watch but some of the focus on Brentford will undoubtedly be diverted towards their boss Dean Smith at Elland Road today.

Smith, a boyhood Aston Villa fan, was immediately made one of the favourites for their managerial vacancy following Steve Bruce's exit on Wednesday.

"They put two and two together and sometimes come up with five," Smith told BBC Radio London.

"My job is Brentford and that is all I am interested in.

"My dad was a steward at Villa and I was brought up an Aston Villa fan and I am not sure they are going to give Prince William the job, are they?"

Leeds found themselves in the unfamiliar position of not being top of the Championship at the conclusion of last weekend's round of fixtures.

Normal service was resumed in midweek, however, and Marcelo Bielsa's side begin this weekend at the summit of the second tier.

Tuesday's 1-0 win at Hull was their first victory in three games.

Leeds make just one change - Stuart Dallas coming in to replace the injured Barry Douglas at left-back.

Dean Smith brings in new four new faces to the Brentford side - out go Alan Judge, Yoann Barbet, Lewis Macleod and Josh McEachran. In come striker Ollie Watkins, who is back after injury, and the three players who came on as substitutes in their 1-1 draw with Birmingham City on Tuesday - Moses Odubajo, Nico Yennaris and Kamohelo Mokotjo.

Leeds: Peacock-Farrell, Ayling, Dallas, Cooper (c), Jansson, Phillips, Klich, Alioski, Harrison, Saiz, Roberts.

Subs: Blackman, Forshaw, Pearce, Shackelton, Baker, Clarke, Edmondson.

Brentford: Daniels, Odubajo, Mepham, Canos, Yennaris, Maupay (c), Watkins, Mokotjo, Sawyers, Dalsgaard, Konsa.

Subs: Bentley, Macleod, McEachran, Judge, Benrahma, Jeanvier, Barbet.

A floodlight failure, late drama and a fan throwing a cabbage at a manager who was sacked the following day - just another week in the English Football League.

What does today have in store? 35 matches across three divisions, that's what.

We start with the Championship leaders Leeds at home to Brentford, with kick-off at Elland Road about 15 minutes away.
