Patrick Bamford blocking out points targets for Leeds United's next batch of games
and live on Freeview channel 276
Marcelo Bielsa's Whites have already amassed seven points from their first four fixtures with a 1-1 draw at home to Manchester City following a 1-0 triumph at Sheffield United and 4-3 verdict at home to Fulham after a loss by a 4-3 scoreline in an opening day epic at Liverpool.
Leeds will now begin another block of four games before the November international break with Monday night's hosting of Wolves which will be followed by Friday evening's clash at Aston Villa.

Hide AdAn Elland Road showdown against Leicester City and trip to Crystal Palace will then take United into the November internationals but Bamford says his side will take one game at a time as opposed to setting a points target from the next block of four games.
"To be honest we don't really do things like that," said Bamford, speaking to LUTV.
"I remember when I was at Palace, Alan Pardew used to do that, he used to block the games off and then try and set targets for each block.
"With us it's very cliche but we just take each game as it comes.

"It's not the same in the Prem, every game you look at and you are like 'do you know what, that's a tough game.'
"I think for us we have just got to go out there, believe that we can win, try and do what we have done in the first four games and then see where it gets us really.
"We know that as long as we outwork everyone then we stand half a chance.
