At the other end of the table, Leeds United are back in the big time after 16 years away with the unique Marcelo Bielsa in charge. Confidence is high after a dominant campaign in the Championship a year ago. West Bromwich Albion and Fulham join them back in the English top flight after earning promotion themselves and will do everything in their power to stay there.
