Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa will experience his first Yorkshire derby when his in-form side face Rotherham later today, and the Argentine has a serious decision to make over who will start in goal.
Academy graduate Bailey Peacock-Farrell has started the first two Championship games of the season, but was at fault for Derby’s only goal as Leeds ran out 4-1 winners last weekend. Tom Lawrence’s free-kick was well struck, but went straight through the hands of the 21-year-old.
The contender for his starting spot is Chelsea loanee Jamal Blackman, who joined the club this summer having spent last season with Sheffield United.
Despite never playing a first team game for his parent club, the 24-year-old is far more experienced than Peacock-Farrell and impressed Leeds fans with his recent league cup performance.

However, 54 per cent of the fans who voted in our poll wanted the home-grown youngster to start ahead of Blackman against Rotherham as Leeds look for their fourth win in a row this season. Check out the full results below.
