Leeds United make the trip to Goodison Park this weekend, looking to build on their strong performance against Arsenal last time out.

Leeds have taken to the Premier League under Marcelo Bielsa in a fashion very similar to how they tackled the Championship, and so far, it’s paying dividends in the performances.

Sitting in 14th, the Whites know there is room for improvement, but can be proud of how they have managed to face up against the top sides in the league so far.

A home clash against Arsenal proved Leeds’ Premier League credentials, seeing them control the vast majority of the game, desperately unlucky not to open the scoring after hitting the woodwork on three occasions.

It’s been a while since we’ve faced the Toffees, even in cup competition, with our last outing against them actually a 2015 friendly, where Chris Wood introduced himself to his new supporters.

However, you have to delve further for a competitive fixture against Everton, and a League Cup clash at a rain-soaked Elland Road back in September 2012 was our last.

Managed by Neil Warnock, we overcame David Moyes’ men with a 2-1 scoreline where a moment of brilliance took the headlines in the midst of a very scrappy affair.

Can you name the starting XI from that 2-1 for Leeds back in the 2012/13 season?
