"Championship playoffs 2019: Definitely the most memorable meeting in recent history between these two was the second leg of the playoff semi-finals at Elland Road in 2019. After Frank Lampard had taken Marcelo Bielsa to task on spying on opposing teams, his Derby produced an extraordinary turnaround to book their place in the final at Wembley.

"Share I've had a guess at a Leeds formation but they've got so many attacking players in their team that we'll have to wait until kick-off to be sure. There are two attack-minded wingers (Gnonto and Harrison) and another three forwards (Okafor, Nmecha and Piroe), with no recognised full-backs in the XI. Share The teams are in from Pride Park: Derby (4-4-1-1): Zetterstrom; Ward, Langas, Batth, Forsyth; Brereton Diaz, Travis, Fraulo, Blackett-Taylor; Clark; Salvesen"
The most memorable recent meeting occurred in the 2019 Championship playoff second leg at Elland Road when Derby overturned Leeds after Marcelo Bielsa was criticised for spying, enabling Frank Lampard's side to reach the Wembley final. The match sparked celebrations and enduring chants. Leeds' likely line-up features numerous attackers including Gnonto, Harrison, Okafor, Nmecha and Piroe, and lacks recognised full-backs. Derby's starting XI and substitutes are listed for the Pride Park tie. The fixture carries deep history from 1970s contests to the Bielsa-Lampard spy controversy. Derby seek their first win over Leeds since 2019 and a place in the FA Cup fourth round is at stake.
