The action continues in round four of Championship as Leeds United and Hull City square off at Elland Road on Saturday (August 31).
Leeds picked up a much-needed 2-0 victory against Sheffield Wednesday at the Hillsborough Stadium in their previous outing. Before that, Daniel Farke’s men were winless in three matches across competitions, including a disappointing 3-0 loss to Middlesbrough in the EFL Cup first round on August 14.
However, Leeds will need to be at their best this weekend, as they have struggled at home, winning one of their last seven competitive matches since April.
Meanwhile, Hull were guilty of a lack of sting in attack last weekend, as they drew goalless with Millwall at the MKM Stadium. Tim Walter’s men have been involved in three consecutive stalemates in their opening three Championship matches this season.
Hull are winless in 11 straight games across competitions, losing six, including a 2-1 defeat to Sheffield Wednesday in the EFL Cup opening round.

Leeds United vs Hull City Prediction
Following an impressive display against Sheffield, Leeds will head to the weekend with confidence as they look to put together a fine run of form. The Tigers, meanwhile, have struggled recently, so expect Leeds to claim all three points.
