Former Arsenal and England goalkeeper David Seaman insists he's 'more sure' of Jesse Marsch after Leeds United's performances this season.
Seaman, who is a Leeds fan and spent his youth career with the club, played 521 games for the Gunners and won two Premier League titles with them alongside four FA Cups and is England's second-highest capped goalkeeper with 75 appearances for the Three Lions.
Mikel Arteta's side come into the game as table-toppers after eight wins in their first nine games while Marsch's Whites sit in 14th after a winless run of five.

Speaking on his podcast 'Seaman Says', the 59-year-old was asked who he thinks needs the win more out of both his former sides.
"My half-and-half scarf will definitely be out! Obviously I'm a Leeds fans but there's also a lot of Arsenal blood running through my veins.
"Straight away, I'd say Leeds because of where we are in the table. For Arsenal, these are the games where you need to go and get points because if you're seriously talking about getting top four and who knows what else, then these are the games you have to win.
"It's win, win for me. Whoever wins I'm happy."
Seaman then spoke about the job Marsch has done with Leeds over the nine months he'd been in charge and how he wasn't sold on the American when he came into the job.
"I'll be honest, last season I wasn't sold on him. I'm a little bit more sure now and just by the way they're playing. They're still playing with that full press, they seem to be a lot more organised which he seems to have put there.
"But with that, has got to come results and you need to get some consistency - and we haven't really had that so far this season. It's a little bit up-and-down, sometimes we'll get a win and sometimes we'll lose. As long as he keeps Leeds up, then he'll have all my confidence for next season."
