Leeds United are again in danger of being relegated from the Premier League. They begin this game against Brentford in 16th place and host in-form Brentford who are ninth. The home side are only outside the relegation zone on goal difference. That's considerably better than the goal differences of the four teams below them and that may well prove useful in the coming months. Leeds come into this game on a poor run of just two points from their last five Premier League games. After a promising start to the season, United have only won two of their last 15 league fixtures. A form guide for the last 15 Premier League games has them one from bottom of the table with only ten points. Home form has seen them only beat Bournemouth in their last seven league matches.

In the last five Premier League games, Brentford have earned 13 points. That's 11 more than their opponents have earned. The Londoners are up to ninth in the table and a win at Elland Road will see them move up to sixth place. They have only lost four league matches this season, winning seven and drawing eight. Brentford are unbeaten in their last seven league matches with just one loss in the last ten. Away form has only produced two wins with four matches being drawn and three defeats. Those two wins have come in the last couple of fixtures played either side of the World Cup break. They won at Manchester City and then at West Ham United. With the home side struggling and Brentford in such good form, the Bees can head back to the south with three points in the bag.
