Match Preview
The Whites confidently hold the lead in the Championship, sitting in first place with 52 points. Daniel Farke's team has justified its status as a favorite since the start of the season. However, due to fierce competition, the gap from their nearest rivals, such as Burnley and Sheffield United, is only one point.
This is due to dropped points in the last two rounds. Leeds failed to secure a win in their home game against Blackburn, ending in a 1-1 draw, which interrupted their three-match winning streak. However, the club remains unbeaten in their last seven matches. At home, Leeds has lost just one game, with 10 wins in 13 matches.

Interestingly, Harrogate performs relatively well in away matches, with three wins and four draws in 13 games.
