The games between Leeds United and Wolves during the 2021/22 season were both packed with drama so it is very fitting that Bruno Lage’s side are the opening-day visitors to Elland Road. The late chaos from those two matches will take some beating on August 6 but it would be typical of the Whites to begin the new campaign in the same way they finished the last.
Leeds ultimately took four points from Wolves in those games but had the final whistle been blown at exactly 90 minutes, they would have had just one. That was the story of much of the season for Marcelo Bielsa and then Jesse Marsch who both watched their side rescue late points on several occasions.
When Wolves visited Elland Road in October, it looked as though Hwang Hee-chan’s early opener would be enough to secure all three points. Cue the introduction of Joe Gelhardt.
