Leeds United Recent Form — Last 5
Key Factors
Efficiency vs. Volume: Leeds has a higher season xG (1.28) but a leaky defense (1.66 conceded), while Palace is clinically overperforming their xG in recent wins.
Fatigue Factor: Crystal Palace is coming off a midweek Europa Conference League fixture against AEK Larnaca, potentially leading to squad rotation or late-game fatigue.
Set-Piece Vulnerability: Leeds possesses a significant aerial threat with the return of Dominic Calvert-Lewin, targeting a Palace side that has struggled with set-piece defense this season.
Injuries & Absentees
Crystal Palace is significantly weakened in central areas with Cheick Doucoure (knee) and Eddie Nketiah (thigh) ruled out. The likely absence of right-back Daniel Munoz (shoulder) disrupts their defensive width. For Leeds, the return of Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Joe Rodon to full fitness provides a major spine boost, though Noah Okafor remains a doubt.
