Recent respective form guides

Leeds United have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. While Whites have scored 6, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.

Brighton & HA's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Seagulls have hit 4 goals, 7 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Leeds Utd.'s 40 points from 31 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 11th position. Brighton & HA find themselves struggling down in 18th position in the league having picked up 37 points from their 30 matches.
