The Whites are enjoying a strong run of four wins in their last five matches, with their only blemish being a narrow 1-0 defeat to Blackburn Rovers. Their attacking prowess has been evident, netting 12 goals in their last six outings, including a commanding 4-0 victory over Oxford United. Defensively, Leeds have been equally impressive, conceding just three goals in this period and keeping three clean sheets. The team's resilience is highlighted by their current five-game unbeaten streak, suggesting they've quickly bounced back from their sole recent loss.

Despite their overall strong league position, their away performances have been inconsistent. The Whites have struggled to find the back of the net consistently, averaging just 1.17 goals per game in their last six away fixtures. However, their defence has been relatively solid, conceding only one goal per game on average and keeping two clean sheets.
