Leeds United Preview – Can Leeds avoid third defeat on trot?
Having suffered back-to-back defeats in the Premier League in recent times against Chelsea and West Ham in 3-1 and 2-1 losses, Leeds United will be keen to halt their slide down the top flight table when they play host to Newcastle United at Elland Road on Wednesday night.
However, recent results suggest this may be easier said than done as in fact, Leeds have managed to win just one out of their last six matches overall in the Premier League and that came in the shape of a 1-0 win away at Everton.
Four defeats within these last six matches have resulted in Leeds dropping down the table to 14th place having lost to Leicester City, Crystal Palace, Chelsea and West Ham while also failing to win any of their last five matches at Elland Road too.
Newcastle United Preview – Can Newcastle extend Leeds’ woes?
Newcastle United occupy 13th place on the Premier League table just one place above Leeds United but the visitors hold a three-point cushion over their hosts prior to this important clash at Elland Road where The Magpies will be seeking to make it three wins on the trot.
Back-to-back wins against Crystal Palace and West Brom have helped maintain Newcastle’s distance between themselves and the bottom three with the goalscoring exploits of Callum Wilson (3 goals in 4 matches) has also been an important contribution in recent times.
Newcastle have lost just once on their travels so far this season which was a 2-0 loss at Southampton but wins at West Ham and Crystal Palace along with points picked up in draws at Tottenham and Wolves prove that the north-east club are no pushovers.
