Our prediction for this Championship match:
Leeds United will look to recover from a 1-0 loss to Millwall when they take on Queens Park Rangers in the Championship round 15. The Whites are a real force to be reckoned with at home, with the team eyeing their fifth consecutive win at Elland Road, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. All Ampadu, Gruev, and Ramazani are out of contention with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The Hoops, on the other hand, have been struggling in the new Championship campaign, with the team recording only one win in the process to date. As Leeds United have been impressive on home soil of late, anything but a routine home victory would be a big surprise. The likes of Ashby, Colback, Frey, Morrison, and Paal are sidelined with injuries for the away team.
Highlighted Team (Leeds United):
Leeds United is one of the clubs that won the FA Cup. The Whites outplayed Arsenal in the final of the prestigious competition back in 1972, but they clinched the League Cup trophy as well. Leeds United faced the Gunners in the 1967/1968 League Cup final and it has to be noted that Terry Cooper scored the winner for the Whites.
Leeds play their home games at Elland Road and the capacity of the stadium is 37,914. The club was founded in 1919 and they have won three First Division (Premier League) trophies ever since (1968/1969, 1973/1974, 1991/1992). Leeds United made it to the Champions League final in 1975, but they were beaten by Bayern Munich in the title clash.
The Whites were impressive under David O’Leary. The likes of Jonathan Woodgate, Lee Bowyer, Harry Kewell, Mark Viduka and Ian Harte were part of the Elland Road outfit back then and they did well to reach the semis of the Champions League in 2001.
