The Leeds United of Marcelo Bielsa fell this Saturday against West Ham United (1-2) and equaled their worst league start in the Premier , after not having won in the first six days.

It is the first time that Leeds, since Bielsa has been in charge, have accumulated six games in a row without winning. The last time they did not win any of their first six league games in the maximum category was in the campaign 1935 – 1936.

This Saturday, he took the lead with a left-footed shot from Brazilian Raphinha, but West Ham came back in the second half with an own goal from Junior Firpo and a Michail Antonio’s target, who returned after suspension, in the minute 90.

The ‘Whites’ are antepenultimate s in the table, with three points, only above Burnley, who have two, and Norwich City, who have lost all six of their games in their return to the Premier League.
