Leeds United, Recent FormLeeds United will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 4-3 win in their away outing against Ipswich Town. During that encounter they had 43% possession and had 14 attempts on goal with 9 on target, while their opponents hit 5 of their 20 shots on goal.
Having lost 14 goals in their past 6 matches, boss Daniel Farke will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 9 goals they scored. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 18 games.
They've drawn their last 2 league games at Elland Road, but their search for a home win in the league extends even further having gone 7 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
Luis Sinisterra will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Leeds United.
Sheffield Wednesday, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Sheffield Wednesday players having failed to take any points away from their recent 2-1 away defeat at the hands of Cardiff City. They achieved 42% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Cardiff City's tally of 11 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
Manager Xisco Muñoz will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 8 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 9 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games on the road.
Sheffield Wednesday will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form, having lost 4 league games in a row.
With 5 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Sheffield Wednesday, Michael Smith will be looking to add more goals against Leeds United in this match.
Last time these two teams played each other in the league Sheffield Wednesday sprung a suprise, upsetting the form book by winning the game 0-2.
The Owls have managed to keep a clean sheet against Leeds in each of their previous 2 meetings. Playing away from home, Wednesday have scored in 2 of their last 3 league games against Leeds.
Leeds manager Daniel Farke has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Patrick Bamford (Unknown), Liam Cooper (Foot), Stuart Dallas (Broken hip), Júnior Firpo (Unknown) and Crysencio Summerville (Leg) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Mallik Wilks (Muscle) and Josh Windass (Muscle) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Xisco Muñoz will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
