West Brom's start to the Championship season has been undeniably impressive, with Slaven Bilic quickly forming a side capable of challenging for promotion.

The Baggies remain unbeaten with nine matches played and, following their comfortable weekend win against Queens Park Rangers, now sit top of the second-tier table.

Goals from exciting youngster Nathan Ferguson and increasingly thrilling summer-signing Matheus Pereira secured the three points, keeping the feel-good factor alive.

However, on Tuesday they will face possibly their biggest test so far in the form of Marcelo Bielsa's Leeds United side.

Both clubs will harbour hopes of automatic promotion after their respective play-off heartbreaks last season and it is sure to be a cracker of a match at the Hawthorns.

And here is the XI that West Brom fans will surely want to see...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There is hardly too much call for change in the starting XI, nor should there be, following their brilliant start.

However, a couple of tweaks should be made. At left-back, it feels like the perfect time for Kieran Gibbs to make his return to the starting XI, with his added experience surely a useful weapon.

This should also mean Nathan Ferguson moving to the right-hand side of defence, at the expense of the more attacking Darnell Furlong.

The midfield duo of Jake Livermore and Romaine Sawyers should remain the same, with the duo complimenting eachother's styles well and providing good balance.

In the front four, one change should be made. Whilst Charlie Austin will most-likely prove to be a great signing, I cannot help but feel that the more physical presence of Kenneth Zohore will cause Ben White and Liam Cooper a few more problems, allowing for the impressive creative unit to thrive.

Matt Phillips, Matheus Pereira and Grady Diangana have all been very good this season and will prove an extremely stern test for the Whites defence.
