Marcelo Bielsa has admitted he is fearful of relegation after Leeds United lost 6-0 to Liverpool on Wednesday.

The Whites are now only three points above 18th-placed Burnley, who have two games in hand on Bielsa's side.

"The distances between the two teams we were never able to reduce them," Bielsa said.

"In the second half we thought it would be difficult to play an even game but we wanted to prevent or avoid what ended up happening.

"A result like today you can't explain it with the absences.

"We are fighting relegation. Of course it worries me, how is it not going to?"
