Championship action returns following the international break on Friday night, as promotion-chasing sides Leeds and Sheffield United face off at Elland Road.

Leeds are still the heavy favourites to win the Championship this season to book their place in the Premier League for next campaign.

They've started well by winning four and drawing four of their opening nine games to leave them fifth – just three points behind league leaders Sunderland.

Daniel Farke's side, who lost in the Championship play-off final last season, will be frustrated they haven't turned their draws into wins, and their last two league games against Sunderland and Norwich have finished level.

Leeds will need to be at their best if they are to beat Sheffield United, who are also expected to be fighting for the title, as they look to secure instant promotion back to the Premier League.

The Blades finished bottom last season after winning just three games in the top flight, but they remain unbeaten after nine Championship outings under Chris Wilder (won six, drawn three).

A win at Elland Road on Friday night would certainly be a statement of intent in their promotion hunt.
