Leeds United are back in action over the weekend and are looking to return to winning ways in the Championship when they travel to Cardiff City.
The Whites are still looking to pick up some momentum after a fragmented start that has seen them pick up two wins, two draws and a defeat in their opening five league matches.
Daniel Farke seemingly put his side along the right tracks before the international break, but losing to Burnley last time out has made it a tough start.

It puts Leeds on eight points from their opening five, a rate that will need to improve over the season if they want to push for promotion.
The clash with Cardiff may prove an ideal point to do so, with the Bluebirds struggling in the early stages of the Championship season.
With no win and only one draw from their opening five games, Erol Bulut is under increasing pressure to pick up results and fast.

Cardiff vs Leeds TV details and live stream

There isn’t a live stream available either unless you live outside of the UK and can access the match from a local broadcaster.
Leeds United team and injury news
Joe Rodon appeared to avoid any concussion worries against Burnley after a coming together with Josh Brownhill in the air, which should see him back in the side.
Patrick Bamford’s latest hamstring troubles kept him out of the defeat at Elland Road last time out, but he is expected to make a return.
There are doubts over whether Dan James or Max Wober will be able to feature though, with the pair still expected to be sidelined.
Cardiff team and injury news
Cardiff have some of their own injury doubts heading into the tie, with Aaron Ramsey and Jesper Daland recently missing their side’s clash with Derby County.
Isaak Davies, Jamilu Collins and Kion Etete are all longer-term absences for the side, who are still looking for a first win of the season.
