Leeds United Preview – Can Leeds make home advantage count?
Following recent back-to-back defeats away from home at Tottenham 3-0 in the Premier League and a disastrous 3-0 loss on the road at League Two outfit, Crawley Town, in the 3rd round of the FA Cup respectively, Leeds United will be desperate to return to winning ways when they host Brighton at Elland Road.
Prior to these losses, Marcelo Bielsa’s side had gained wins against Burnley and West Brom in the top flight and they’ll be eyeing off all three points against a struggling Brighton side who sit fourth from bottom in the Premier League.
An earlier 5-2 home win against Newcastle United means that Leeds have won three of their last five matches overall while at home they’ve lost just three of their eight matches played to date.
Brighton Preview – Can Brighton break drought?
Brighton were given a scare by League Two side, Newport County, in last weekend’s FA Cup tie as the Premier League side only scraped through on penalties but it’s back to the business of Premier League survival for The Seagulls who have managed just two wins all season in the top flight.
Fourth from bottom Brighton bring a winless run of nine matches into this clash at Elland Road which includes four defeats to Southampton, Leicester City, Arsenal and Manchester City, but their thin strand of hope lies in the fact that both of their wins to date have been achieved away from home.
Wins at Newcastle United and Aston Villa have contributed to Brighton just about keeping their heads above water but can they match Leeds’s pressing in this upcoming clash?
