Leeds United will host Huddersfield Town at Elland Road on Saturday in another round of the 2023-24 EFL Championship campaign.
The home side have had a largely solid campaign and are well on course to secure playoff football at the end of the season. They were beaten 1-0 by Stoke in their last match, with Patrick Bamford squandering a spot kick 15 minutes from time before Pascal Struijk scored an own goal at the other end minutes later.
Leeds United sit third in the league table with 22 points from 13 games. They will be looking to shake off their latest result and return to winning ways this weekend.
Huddersfield, meanwhile, have had a slow start to life under new boss Darren Moore and currently find themselves just outside the drop zone. They were thrashed 4-0 by Cardiff City in their last game and had good chances to get on the scoresheet themselves in either half but were guilty of wasteful finishing.
The visitors sit 21st in the table with just 14 points picked so far. They are five points above the drop zone and will be looking to widen that gap this Saturday.
