Leeds win
WHY: Leeds have been excellent for quite some time now, so it's perhaps unsurprising to see them flourishing in the early stages of the season. Since December 3, Leeds have lost only five of their past 29 league games - putting them fifth overall in that timeframe.
They arrive unbeaten at Elland Road over the last seven, winning five and scoring 21 goals at an average of exactly three goals per game.
That's good news for Farke considering Crystal Palace have shipped more goals than anyone in the division (11), rank second-bottom for most shots on target conceded (25) and have the worst expected goals conceded in the division.
KEY STAT: Leeds have lost just five of their last 29 Premier League games (W10, D14), collecting 44 points in that period.
Over 3.5 goals
WHY: Goals should be on the menu at Elland Road if both sides stay true to form. Leeds' last two fixtures have witnessed a total of 14 goals, with four of their last seven home matches seeing three or more goals scored.
The neutral has enjoyed watching Crystal Palace games, too, with no less than four total goals scored in four of their last five in all competitions. Not to mention their last two meetings in Yorkshire produced scorelines of 4-1 and 1-5.
KEY STAT: Crystal Palace have conceded at least twice in each of their last 10 Premier League matches, the second-longest such run in competition history.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin to score
WHY: The Leeds talisman is on a hot streak, netting four goals in all competitions - including a first-half brace during the 4-1 win against Newcastle earlier this week.
Since the start of last season, only Erling Haaland (16) and Igor Thiago (13) have scored more Premier League home goals than Calvert-Lewin's 10, while only five players have generated better xG figures this term.
KEY STAT: Dominic Calvert-Lewin is just the second Leeds player to score in five consecutive Premier League appearances at Elland Road
