Leeds United form and stats

Leeds United have played 18 Premier League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 7-5-6 (wins-draws-losses).

The Leeds goalkeeper Francisco Casilla Cortes is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 245 minutes without conceding a goal in the Premier League.

It's back home for Leeds United, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Southampton away with the result 2-0. Patrick Bamford and Tyler Roberts found the net in that victory. Liam Cooper, defender, was given a rating of 8.35/10 in that game, top of the team. Cooper won 8 of 12 duels.

In the preceding match a 4-0 victory visiting Burnley.

West Bromwich Albion form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for West Bromwich Albion, who have the most conceded goals (73) in Premier League, so far with only 11 points returning home. The records show 2-5-11 (win-draw-lose). Three has not been a lucky number for West Bromwich Albion as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Wolverhampton Wanderers match.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Premier League home defeat versus West Ham United with 1-3 on the scoreboard. The attacker Matheus Pereira got a match rating of 8.0 in that game. Pereira scored one goal, dribled passed the opponent 3 of 5 times and had 33 successful passes (of 39 total). It's a bit worrying for WBA that their goalkeeper Sam Johnstone made six saves in the West Ham United game last time out, but still couldn't prevent the loss.

A 1-2 loss hosting Liverpool before that.

WBA find the net regularly in their away games. 19 goals from 18 away fixtures in the league. Defensive performances away have varied in quality as West Bromwich Albion have conceded 34 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
