Leeds will take on Derby today at Pride Park, with the breathless predictions of how Frank Lampard’s Derby County will face off against Marcelo Bielsa’s Leeds United, as if there isn’t going to be 22 players kicking the ball around on the pitch that will actually determine the outcome of the match instead.

You might have heard that Frank Lampard is now in charge of Derby County, and they won for the first time under Frank Lampard last week in the opening fixture of the Championship. Derby, who is managed by Frank Lampard, beat Reading FC thanks to a stoppage time goal from Tom Lawrence.

Leeds, however, won in more convincing fashion over Stoke City last weekend, in what seemed an impossible display from the same team that limped it’s way to a 13th place finish. Perhaps a change of managers is exactly what Leeds needed, as the team had a dismal run of form under Paul Heckingbottom, losing eight of their last 16 matches last season and winning only four.

Leeds will almost certainly line-up in a very similar lineup to last week, after such a dominating performance. Derby’s lineup will also not change very much.

Anyway, here’s hoping that Bielsa can find a way to pick up his first road win in the Championship over Frank Lampard’s Derby County.
