Leeds and Bournemouth meet at Elland Road with both sides looking to build on promising starts to the Premier League season.
Daniel Farke's side scored their first goals since the opening day win over Leeds in a brilliant 3-1 comeback win at Wolves, which puts them on seven points after five games and already four points clear of the relegation zone. They have also yet to lose or concede a goal at home but will have their work cut out against the Cherries.
Andoni Iraola has shrugged off the loss of several key players over the summer to have his side sitting in the top four on 10 points, with a goalless draw at home to Newcastle snapping a three-game winning run. They almost got a result at Anfield on the opening night and then won at Tottenham so will fancy their chances of all three points in Yorkshire.

Leeds vs. Bournemouth: Who will win?
This is a hard game to call with Leeds looking very strong at home and rather resolute outside of a hammering at Arsenal, while Bournemouth continue to look like maybe the best-coached side in the league and one capable of winning anywhere.
The Cherries extra bit of quality, most notably star man Antoine Semenyo, could be the difference and we're backing them to just take home the win to the south coast.
