Forum Comp Day 3, WEDNESDAY, Leeds v Derby 1-2-X

Tikay10 · May 2019

Morning.

Great match last night, & with any luck more of the same tonight as Leeds take on Derby at Elland Road. Derby were awful in the 1st Leg, so it's all or nothing for them tonight. Should be a cracker.

Here's the table after 2 nights.

Despite 11 correct selections yesterday, just one player has scored 2 from 2, so well done to @safc71.

Plenty of folks in profit though, & still 5 rounds left, so it's anyone's to win.

I think our current leader deserves this, as it's been a while since Sunderland topped any league.

Here's the OPTA stuff;

Leeds have beaten Derby County three times this season – they’ve never beaten a side four times in a single season in their history.

20% of Derby’s entire defeats in all competitions this season have been against Leeds United (three out of 15).

None of the previous 17 teams to lose the first leg of a second-tier play-off semi-final at home have progressed to the final.

Including play-offs, no player has scored more Championship goals against an opponent this season than Leeds striker Kemar Roofe has against Derby (four goals).

Leeds have lost just two of their last 45 home matches in May in all competitions (W25 D18 L2), although one of those was in the League One play-offs in 2008 (1-2 vs Carlisle United).

Derby have won just one of their last 10 away matches in all competitions (W1 D5 L4).

The team finishing third in the Championship haven’t lost the home leg of the play-off semi-final since 2009-10, when Nottingham Forest lost 3-4 to Blackpool – third-place teams have won seven of their eight home legs since then (W7 D1 L0).

Across three Championship matches against Leeds this season, Derby have managed just 26 shots, six shots on target and one goal; in the home leg, the Rams failed to attempt an effort on target and had just two shots in the second half.
