Leeds v Swansea

Leeds vs Swansea Preview

Leeds United not only retained their place in third spot in the Championship table with their recent 1-1 draw away from home at Yorkshire rivals, Rotherham United, but they also extended their unbeaten run in the Championship to four games as they look to return to winning ways at Elland Road on Wednesday night, while Swansea City's lean period continued on the weekend with a 2-2 draw at home with Hull City.

Leeds United previously posted a three-match winning streak which helped lift the Yorkshire hosts up into third spot on the back of victories gained over Huddersfield Town, Leicester City and Plymouth Argyle respectively, and the bigger picture has certainly been a positive one for Leeds fans as their side have slipped to just two defeats in their last 15 matches overall in the Championship.

Having also collected nine wins within this promising period of results, Leeds United look a threat when they return to Elland Road for this upcoming clash against Swansea City, particularly as the two defeats were both inflicted upon them on their travels, while results at home show Leeds are unbeaten in their last 16 games and includes 12 wins in the process.

Swansea City by contrast have managed to capture just the one win from their last six attempts in the Championship which came in the form of a 1-0 win away from home at Blackburn Rovers but although the Welsh visitors have also picked up points in draws with Sunderland and Hull City, The Swans have also been handed three defeats within this period which has resulted in the visitors currently occupying a disappointing lower half position in the Championship table of 17th place.

One gets the feeling that the departure of former manager, Russell Martin, is still having a negative impact upon Swansea City's results and indeed the visitors have managed to collect just five wins to date in the English second tier so far this season from a total of 17 league matches.

Swansea have picked up a few wins on the road so far this season as they have gained victories at Millwall, Plymouth Argyle and Blackburn Rovers but the Welsh side have also been dealt four defeats as well and having kept just two clean sheets in their last nine outings on their travels, this looks like being another tough proposition for Michael Duff's side here on Wednesday night.

Leeds United v Swansea City Verdict

Leeds United are unbeaten in their last four meetings against Swansea City and with home advantage behind them at Elland Road on Wednesday night, the Yorkshire hosts look to hold the edge over their Welsh counterparts as the home side look to reduce the seven-point deficit on second placed Ipswich Town with a win.
