Competition: Championship
Market: Leeds win
Odds: 1/2 @ 1xBet
Hoping to extend their stay at the top of the Championship table, Leeds will welcome Luton to Elland Road on Wednesday night.
Starting with the hosts, eventually snatching what was a sensational 4-3 win away at Swansea last weekend, Leeds have now found a way to the top of the Championship standings. Heading into November’s international break with a routine 2-0 victory at home against QPR, Daniel Farke’s men find themselves pencilled in as the standout promotion contender this season. Looking to lay down another marker on Wednesday night, the former Norwich boss has seen his squad suffer just a single defeat from any of their last 11 Championship appearances. With that extended purple patch stemming all the way back to September 14th, the Yorkshire-based outfit will also be excited by the prospect of returning to Elland Road here. Along with opening November with a 3-0 romp against Plymouth, Wednesday’s hosts have won all of their previous five straight showdowns in front of their own supporters by an aggregate score of 12-1. It should also be highlighted, Farke’s men have conceded just a single Championship strike in Yorkshire since the middle of September.
As for the visitors, managing to make what was a much-needed return to winning ways last weekend as they claimed a gritty 1-0 victory against Hull, Luton are desperate to use that performance as a platform to build on. However, although the Hatters might have opened up the new campaign with their sights set on securing an immediate Premier League return, Rob Edwards’ men have continued to show a string of glaring issues this season. Heading into November’s international break with a nightmare display as they slumped to a 5-1 drumming at the hands of Middlesbrough, Wednesday’s guests are battling it out at the wrong end of the Championship standings. Signing off October with an action-packed 3-2 loss away at Coventry, Luton have won just a trio of their previous 10 appearances. It should also be highlighted, the former Watford boss has seen his squad lose all of their last four consecutive showdowns outside of Bedfordshire by an aggregate score 13-4.
