Current streaks

Recent form

Leeds United

Leeds United have shown a strong run of form recently, winning four of their last six matches despite a recent setback against Blackburn Rovers. The team's attacking prowess is evident, scoring an impressive 12 goals in these six games, averaging 2 goals per match. Defensively, Leeds have been solid, conceding just 0.83 goals per game and keeping three clean sheets. A particularly high-scoring encounter was the 4-3 victory away at Swansea, showcasing Leeds' ability to outscore opponents in tight matches. The team's current third position in the league, with 35 points from 18 games, reflects their consistent performance. Interestingly, Leeds have seen an even split between high and low-scoring games, with 50% of their recent matches featuring over 2.5 goals and 50% under. This balance suggests a team capable of adapting their style to different opponents and match situations.

Derby County

Derby County are experiencing a challenging run of form, having won just once in their last six matches. The Rams are currently on a two-game losing streak, falling to Sheffield Wednesday and Swansea in their most recent outings. Their defensive frailties are evident, with the team failing to keep a clean sheet in their last nine games - a concerning statistic for manager Paul Warne. Despite their struggles, Derby have managed to find the net consistently, scoring in all of their last six matches. However, their goal difference of -2 over this period suggests they're conceding more than they're scoring. The high percentage of games (67%) featuring over 2.5 goals indicates that Derby's matches have been relatively entertaining for neutrals, with both teams scoring in all of their last six fixtures. Currently sitting 15th in the Championship, the Rams will be eager to improve their form and climb the table.

The 3-0 victories against Luton Town, Plymouth Argyle, and Coventry City stand out as particularly convincing performances, highlighting Leeds' ability to dominate opponents at home.
