Did you know?

Leeds are aiming to avoid losing three consecutive Premier League matches for the first time this season. 

Patrick Bamford has scored in all four of Leeds’ PL home wins this season, while the Whites have won none of their seven matches at Elland Road in which he hasn’t found the net (D2 L5). 

Southampton have won nine of their last 10 PL contests against promoted sides, with the exception being a goalless draw with Fulham in their last such match. 

Saints have scored a league-high share 65 per cent of their PL goals in the first half of matches this season, while only Arsenal, with 62 per cent, have conceded a higher share before half-time than Leeds' 60 per cent.
