Did you know?

Sheffield-born Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy has scored in each of his last five Premier League away appearances in Yorkshire, netting in two matches against Huddersfield Town, two versus Sheffield United and one at Leeds United. The only player to score in six consecutive Premier League away appearances in Yorkshire is Harry Kane between November 2014 and January 2021.

As well as scoring 40 per cent of Leeds’ Premier League goals so far this season (four out of 10), Raphinha has created the most chances (18), had the most shots (32) and completed the most dribbles (26) of any player for the Whites in 2021/22.

Leicester have won four of their last five league trips to Leeds United (L1), as many as they had in their previous 16 visits to Elland Road. The Foxes are looking to win three in a row at Leeds for the first time in their history.

Leeds are looking to win consecutive league matches for the first time this season, though both of their victories so far this term have come against promoted sides Watford and Norwich City.
