It’s real Marsch madness.

Lifeline for Leeds?
The number of wolves is only 10 men, as Raul Jimenez was shown a second yellow card for a late challenge on Illan Meslier.
Leeds has 35 minutes to get back into this game. However, they are now without their number 1 keeper as he sustained an injury and had to be replaced by Kristoffer Klaesson.

Wolves are currently moving into sixth place
In Friday Night Football tonight, Wolves receive Leeds United and the home team is currently 2-0 ahead at halftime.
Bruno Lage’s squad will move to sixth if they can hold on to all three points.
Jonny opened the scoring in the 26th minute and gave Wolves the lead before Trincao doubled the lead in stoppage time.

A first assist of the season for Trincao, who grabs Moutinho’s excellent ball to the right, goes to the line and pulls it back for JONNY CASTRO OTTO, who sweeps him into the corner from 10 yards. A really simple move and a beautiful Wolves goal. Jonny’s first since July 2020.

An important game for Leeds tonight
A win for Everton over Newcastle last night has left Frank Lampard’s side breathing down Jesse Marsch’s neck.
A win tonight against Wolves will be key if Leeds want to stay as far away from the bottom three as possible. They have the potential to lead by seven points.
Discuss tonight’s game with Phil Hay below.

Conte vs Arteta
Earlier today, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta expressed his dismay at such a hectic schedule.
Tottenham’s Antonio Conte has since responded, urging his counterpart to “remember the postponed game”.
The North London derby was postponed earlier this season after Arsenal’s request to cancel the game was approved. Arteta claimed they had “many players in our squad currently unavailable due to COVID, injuries and players away with their countries at AFCON”.
