Leeds United are looking to extend their advantage at the top of the Championship this weekend when they clash with Stoke City, who are under the guidance of a new boss in the form of Nathan Jones.

The Peacocks enter the weekend with a four-point lead over their title rivals but Norwich City could reduce that figure to just a single point if they manage to beat Birmingham City this evening.

Bielsa’s side need to find consistency after losing three games in a row across all competitions prior to their victory over Derby and the team have been handed a vital boost asĀ Yorkshire Evening PostĀ journalist Phil Hay confirmed that Izzy Brown is available for selection.

The 22-year-old Chelsea loanee is yet to make a senior first-team appearance at Elland Road after struggling with injury problems during the first few months of his spell at the club but could become a vital asset during the fight for promotion that lies ahead.
