The Leeds United and Jesse Marsch era gets underway on Saturday as the Whites travel to the King Power Stadium to face Leicester City.
Marsch will be keen to hit the ground running at his new club and arrest their recent run of form after four consecutive defeats.
Leicester, meanwhile, will be full of confidence after picking up their first Premier League win of 2022 against Leeds ’ relegation rivals Burnley on Tuesday.
The Whites will be looking for a repeat of their last visit to the Foxes as they came from behind to earn an impressive 3-1 win.

Any early team news?
While the initial prediction from former manager Marcelo Bielsa was that Kalvin Phillips and Liam Cooper would return in early March, in his final press conference he hinted that would not be the case.
Phillips and Cooper could instead return the following week against Aston Villa, meaning those two, Patrick Bamford and Leo Hjelde are Leeds’ only absentees.
Jamie Vardy returned to the Leicester team on Tuesday off the bench in the win over Burnley with a goal and an assist. He could be handed a start against Leeds this weekend.
The Foxes, however, remain without Wesley Fofana, Jonny Evans, Timothy Castagne, James Justin and Ryan Bertrand, while Ricardo Pereira will be assessed after feeling some tightness in his hamstring at Turf Moor.
