Leeds will look to return to the top of the Championship tonight with a victory against QPR at Loftus Road.

It's a huge fixture for the Whites as it's their game in hand on their rivals in the race for automatic promotion.

Despite that, boss Marcelo Bielsa once again named his XI the day before kick-off, with the Argentinian revealing that he would be keeping the same starting team that won on Saturday against Bolton.

That means 20-year-old Tyler Roberts has been given the nod to play just off Patrick Bamford.

Whilst he clearly has talent, it's a big call from Bielsa to go with the Wales international, who has only scored three goals in the league this season.

With Barry Douglas fit and available, he may have been tempted to push Ezgjan Alioski into a more natural attacking role and Izzy Brown is another option available to the ex-Marseille boss.

So, Roberts should take a lot of confidence from the fact he has been selected and now is the time for him to repay Bielsa's faith in him with a big performance.

Clearly, the manager likes what the youngster brings to the team and his energy, pace and movement mean he is always a threat.

However, there's no getting away from the fact that three goals and one assist is just not enough for someone in an attacking position.

So, whilst tonight is a big game for everyone at Leeds, it's particularly important for Roberts who will be desperate to start delivering in crucial moments.
