In-form Leeds United host struggling Crystal Palace at Elland Road
Leeds United look to cement their strong start against a Crystal Palace side struggling with defensive vulnerabilities and a crowded fixture list.
Leeds United sit 4th in the table with 8 points after four games. Daniel Farke’s side remain unbeaten in their last three league outings, most recently dismantling Newcastle 4-1 at home. The Whites have found the net in all of their last five matches at Elland Road, scoring 12 goals in that period.
Crystal Palace occupy 17th place with 3 points from four matches. New manager Pierre Sage faces his third game in eight days following a midweek European fixture. While Palace secured a 3-2 win over Fulham recently, they suffered a 2-3 home defeat to Ipswich last time out and have conceded a league-high 11 goals so far.
