Champions Leeds United mounted a second half comeback to win 3-1 at Derby County while Barnsley’s hopes of staying up in the second-tier Championship were given a huge boost when they beat Nottingham Forest 1-0 with a stoppage time goal on Sunday.

Predicted Leeds XI vs Luton: Bielsa to make two changes, 28 y/o to start
Leeds United will face Luton Town in the Championship on Tuesday at Elland Road. The Whites returned to winning ways after earning a 3-0 win in a crucial game against Fulham last week. With that win, Leeds are now back at the top of the Championship table with three points ahead of West Bromwich Albion. Marcelo Bielsa’s side will now be looking to build on the win against Fulham when they face Luton on Tuesday. The Argentine generally doesn’t like to make many changes in his side. However, he could make a couple of changes from the starting line-up that faced Fulham. The defensive quartet of Luke Ayling, Ben White, Liam Cooper, and Stuart Dallas is likely to remain unchanged. Kalvin Phillips and Mateusz Klich will start in midfield, while Patrick Bamford is expected to operate as a lo...
