Leeds United head back into Premier League action after the international break, eager to pick up their first win in the challenging division since the opening weekend.
Since that 1-0 success over Everton at Elland Road, Daniel Farke's Whites have depressingly lost 5-0 away at Arsenal, drawn 0-0 with Newcastle United back on home turf, and have even been dumped out of the EFL Cup by a youthful Sheffield Wednesday.

Standing in their way of a first away win of the season will likely be Harry Wilson, with the deadline day target for the Whites no doubt ready to inflict more pain on Farke and Co. by terrorising the Leeds defence at Craven Cottage later today.
Why Leeds will need to contain Wilson
Despite having a deal in the works on deadline day, a last-gasp change of heart from Fulham would see a late move for the Welshman to swap London for Yorkshire fall through.
Having started Fulham's last contest against Brighton and Hove Albion before this messy situation unfolded, Wilson might well get the nod to start against Farke's men, too, with a desire to show Leeds what they heartbreakingly missed out on.
After all, despite all the talk about his future and Wilson's inability to pick up a goal or assist so far this season, he does have a moment of magic like this flicked finish against Brentford up his sleeve.
In total, for the Cottagers, the ex-Liverpool man has a hefty tally of 25 goals and 38 assists next to his name, with his own personal record against Leeds also making him a worthy candidate to start later today.

From six career clashes against Farke's men to date, Wilson has two goals and one assist to shout about, with one of those goals even coming about the last time the two teams tussled with each other in Premier League action.
The German will be hopeful that his own set of attackers can rain on the Craven Cottage parade, however, as faces such as Daniel James try to get one over on their former employers.
Leeds are even brewing their own homegrown version of Wilson in the U21 ranks currently, and while the starlet in question won't be featuring this weekend, he is certainly one to keep an eye on for the future.
Leeds' "very talented" homegrown Wilson
After all, the Premier League newcomers are well-known for their conveyor belt of standout youngsters initially learning the ropes at Thorp Arch, before then exploding into life on the senior scene.
Harry Gray is definitely one who could make waves in the first team picture soon, having just been nominated for Premier League 2 Player of the Month after bagging a blistering four strikes from just three league encounters this season.
Alongside Gray, his fellow attacking teammate for the U21s, Josh McDonald is another name that could soon break into Farke's first-team plans, having already been branded as "very talented" by Hamilton Academical academy director George Cairns when the teenager was still on the books of the Scottish side.
He has lived up to that high praise in West Yorkshire already, with a whirlwind return of seven goals and six assists for the U18s during his debut season in the youth ranks, bumping him up to the U21 fold.

In time, McDonald might well become Leeds' very own Wilson to soften the blow of the Welshman staying put at Fulham, with his versatility to play down either wing - as seen in the table above - drawing immediate parallels to the adaptable former Liverpool youth product.
Moreover, with eight goals and eight assists next to his name for Leeds, it's clear he possesses a similar eye for a goal and an assist to the Cottagers' number eight, away from being dubbed a "lovely" talent to watch when bursting forward with pace by Whites-based content creator Conor McGilligan.
Fulham's Harry Wilson in action
Leeds will just have to wait and see if their raw Scotsman does go on to have a celebrated career like Wilson, but the early signs are very promising.
