MATCH FACTS

Head-to-head

Fulham have won only two of their past 11 league games against Leeds, but both of those came at Craven Cottage.

Leeds did the double over Fulham in the 2020-21 season, when the Cottagers were relegated.

Leeds United

Leeds have lost three league games in a row and are winless in seven (D2, L5).

Leeds have lost on the last two Sundays - against Crystal Palace and Arsenal. If they lose to Fulham, that would be three successive Sunday defeats for the first time in 20 years, all of them coming against London teams.

The Whites have won nine of their last 10 games against promoted teams, drawing the other against Brentford.

Fulham

Fulham have won four Premier League games this season, only one fewer than they managed across 38 matches when relegated two seasons ago.

Fulham have lost eight of their last nine Premier League games in Yorkshire and have conceded 23 goals in the process.

Aleksandar Mitrovic has four goals and two assists in his last six league games against Leeds, including scoring two goals last time out.
