Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has said on the club\u2019s official website\u00a0that winning against Leeds United at Elland Road will not be an easy task at all.<\/p>\n
Klopp said that in their victory over Manchester City on Saturday afternoon, Leeds demonstrated how tough they are to beat as Marcelo Bielsa\u2019s side pulled off a 2-1 win away from home against City at the Etihad Stadium.<\/p>\n
Liverpool take on Leeds away from home at Elland Road in the Premier League on April 19, and Klopp maintains that winning against the Whites will be anything but smooth sailing.<\/p>\n
Klopp told Liverpool\u2019s official website:<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have Real Madrid, of course, but then in the league we play Leeds and I think everybody who saw them fighting today against Man City knows that it is not a walk in the park.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt will be a tough one; I think they are leading in all physical stats in the league, so that means if you want to get something there you have to do a lot and that\u2019s what we will do.\u201d<\/p>\n
Leeds gave Liverpool a run for their money when the two sides met at Anfield earlier in the season, and the Whites will make it hard for the Reds to win this time around as well.<\/p>\n
City piled on the pressure on Leeds, especially in the second half, but Bielsa\u2019s side held strong, defended well and then hit Pep Guardiola\u2019s team on the counter.<\/p>\n
