Leeds United form and stats

Leeds United's results here at Elland Road in the Premier League have been very modest with 3 victories, 4 draws and 6 defeats. It's trouble wherever Leeds United are playing these days as they have suffered five straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways.

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 306 minutes without scoring a league goal. Raphinha was the last player to find the net.

The fans are hoping that Leeds United will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the match against Leicester City (placed 12th). Harrison (midfield was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.72/10. Harrison hit five key passes and dribled past the opponent 4 of 6 times.

Ahead of that match, Leeds lost 0-4 at home to Tottenham Hotspur.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Leeds United have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found seven matches with the results: Won one, drawn two and lost four.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Leeds United as they have a new game in only three days, a Premier League match thankfully also at home. Norwich City are visiting.

Leeds are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 15 goals in 13 games. Leeds United have conceded 25 from these games.

Aston Villa form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Premier League travels is 5 wins, 0 draws and 8 defeats.

Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Aston Villa goalkeeper Damian Emiliano Martinez is eager to challenge this, with his 192 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.

Watkins, Coutinho, Ings and Luiz scored in Aston Villa's previous match, the home game against Southampton that ended 4-0. Ings, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 8.21. Ings scored one goal, signed up for two assists and hit two key passes.

Preceding that game was the away victory against Brighton & Hove Albion with the score of 2-0.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by Villa in our archives, and the results are: four wins for Aston Villa, two draws and one defeat.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Aston Villa manager Gerrard as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against West Ham United.

Aston Villa have conceded 17 goals in these away matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.

Head 2 Head

Aston Villa - Leeds United 3-3 was the result in these sides' last H2H fixture, earlier this season. Numbers for the last nine meetings involving these two contenders are: three wins for Leeds, four draws and two wins for Aston Villa. Over 2,5 goals: three times; under 2,5 goals: six games.
