Leeds United, Recent FormThe Leeds United squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 away defeat against Everton, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. In that game they had 50% possession and managed 8 attempts on goal, with 0 on target, compared to Everton who had 15 attempts and 6 on target.
Having scored just 3 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager Michael Skubala where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table, although he will still have one eye on his defence which have shipped 8 in the same period. There are concerning signs for them, having failed to score in 4 of their last 6 league games. Michael Skubala will be slightly concerned about his defence, after only managing 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games.
A win for Leeds United is just a distant memory, having not won a single match in 10 games.
Rodrigo Moreno Machado will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Leeds United.
Southampton, Recent FormSouthampton will be happy to have grabbed 3 points in their last match, where they clocked up a 1-0 win in their away outing against Chelsea. They achieved 39% possession in that match and had 8 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Chelsea's tally of 17 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
It seems pretty certain that Rubén Sellés will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 4 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 8 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. Away goals have been high on their agenda recently, having scored in 4 of their last 6 away league games. As defensive records go, they don't have one to celebrate, with at least 1 goal shipped in 21 of their 23 league matches this season.
Losing 4 of their last 6 games will be causing some concern in the Southampton camp, but their 2 wins salvaged some valuable points. Their form has been poor this season, losing 15 of 23 league games.
James Ward-Prowse will be hoping to create problems for Leeds United in this one, having scored 4 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Southampton.
In the previous encounter between these sides, both teams grabbed goals, with the match finishing in a 2-2 draw.
In each of the previous 3 matches against The Saints, Leeds have let in at least one goal.
The last 2 league meetings between these teams has ended with a share of the spoils but Leeds will be slighlty more concerned that they have not won this fixture in 3 games.
Leeds manager Michael Skubala has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Liam Cooper (Knock), Stuart Dallas (Broken leg), Adam Forshaw (Hip), Archie Gray (Ankle), Rodrigo Moreno Machado (Ligament), Marc Roca (Knock) and Luis Sinisterra (Muscle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Rubén Sellés has a number of injury concerns in his Southampton squad to contend with: Armel Bella-Kotchap (Knock), Moussa Djenepo (Concussion), Juan Larios (Muscle), Tino Livramento (Cruciate ligament), Alex McCarthy (Ankle) and Kyle Walker-Peters (Hamstring)
