Leeds preview: Importance on home advantage
Daniel Farke was already under immediate pressure following their Championship title win last season but Leeds United have been able to put in some good performances, albeit they have drifted once again down into the midst of the relegation battle.
Leeds headed into the November international break on the back of a 3-1 hammering at the hands of fellow strugglers Nottingham Forest, a week after they were beaten 3-0 by Brighton and Hove Albion at the AMEX Stadium.
Aston Villa preview: In-form Villains
After a dreadful start to the campaign, Aston Villa have been much-improved in the last couple of months as they begin this weekend’s round of fixtures sitting tucked back inside the top six in the Premier League.
They managed to dispatch of a previously impressive AFC Bournemouth side by four goals to nil at Villa Park a fortnight ago to mean they have now won eight of their last ten matches across all competitions.

Leeds vs Aston Villa prediction
Leeds will require performances and results when at Elland Road if they are to propel themselves away from danger this season. The Yorkshire outfit have perhaps gone too far the other way in trying to be reactive and controlling of their opposition, with a limited attacking threat. They face a Villa side that should be able to contain whatever limited attacking thrust is thrown at them and they have an abundance, and variety, of their own quality to get themselves a win.
