If #AVFC work the ball, they have a 2v1 down the right. Cash knows this and keeps gesturing for Bailey to move inside when he overlaps. The problem is, the quality has been so poor, they very rarely combine together

Anton Stach’s 30-yard free-kick has put Leeds United ahead against Aston Villa. It seems everyone, including Emiliano Martinez, was expecting Stach to deliver a cross, but the midfielder had other ideas... Should Martinez have done better?

HT: #AVFC 0-1 Leeds A lot of what you may have feared but hoped not, has materialised. Leeds tough tactically and physically, as was expected. But the challenge is harder by their goal and Villa's toils when faced with a wing-back system who also congest the middle of the park

HT: Villa trail after Satch found the top corner from distance. Bailey and Watkins had Villa's first two shots on target late in the half, before Darlow denied Onana from close range. Big improvement needed after the interval. Abraham and Sancho in reserve. #AVFC 0-1 Leeds

Alarming the number of crosses and passes constantly overhit in recent games. #AVFC

GOAL: Anton Stach opens the scoring for Leeds, beating Emi Martinez from a free-kick from distance. Looks like he caught the Villa 'keeper out. #AVFC 0-1 Leeds

Oh my. What a free-kick and strike from Stach. Caught Martinez on the hop as everyone expected a cross. What a goal. Leeds 1-0 #AVFC

When #AVFC go back to Martinez, Leeds spring into a man-to-man marking system. Emery barking at Martinez to play long into Watkins or bailey, who have to be better in holding the ball up top

Leeds a 5-4-1 without the ball, compacting space centrally. Rogers has made just four passes & struggling to get on the ball.The space is through Maatsen & Cash/Bailey down the sides. Almost half an hour in and feels such a tough game stylistically - #AVFC just have to find a way
