Match preview

Leeds’ confidence is building after just one defeat in their last five matches, while they're unbeaten in their last four at Elland Road.

Having been shorn of some key players earlier in the season, the Yorkshire side are slowly getting back to near full-strength with both Patrick Bamford and Luke Ayling in contention for Sunday's visit of Brentford.

Another key to the Whites’ upturn in form has been some better defensive displays, with Marcelo Bielsa’s men conceding just two goals in their last four home games.

In contrast, Brentford have conceded eight goals in their last three on the road and have collected just one point during that run, leaving them just a point ahead of Leeds in the table.

The Bees managed only one shot on goal in their midweek defeat at Tottenham and could find chances hard to come by at Elland Road.

Key stat

Leeds are unbeaten in their last four home meetings with Brentford, keeping clean sheets in three of those games.
