Leeds are the best side in the league according to both the standard table and the xG table. The xG has them 20 points clear of Sheffield United, who are down in 5th.

They’re unbeaten since November, having played Burnley and Sunderland during that period.

A draw is not the end of the world for them and maintains the gap at the top.

Leeds have picked up the fewest yellow cards in the league with 53 and 0 red cards, whilst The Blades have a combined 75 cards.

You would expect Chris Wilders side will have to defend against plenty of quick transitions, which can leads to cards if tackles are mistimed or if players are out of position.

Clarke is averaging 1.5 fouls per 90 since his arrival at Bramall Lane.

Given the quality Leeds possess, it’s probably also worth looking at how he did up against Premier League opponents in the first half of the season. He started 4 games, committing at least 1 fouls in 3 of them.

Aaronson usually plays just behind Piroe and triggers the press for Leeds. With so much emphasis on build up down the flanks, it means he has to put the yards in to cover ground in the middle and stop quick counters when crosses are cleared.

He commits just shy of 1 per game, but that should increase in a game of this magnitude.

Sheffield United have struggled against the better sides in the league. They lost at Leeds and Sunderland, and at home to Burnley and WBA.

Leeds beat then so comfortably in the first game, at a time when arguably Leeds were playing worse and Sheffield United were playing better than they are now.

8 of Leeds last 9 wins have come whilst keeping a clean sheet, so given we expect them to win the game, it makes sense to boost that by including Sheffield United not to score.

If Burnley can beat Sheffield United to nil, we’re  confident an in form Leeds side can do that same.

Clarke has played a combined 738 minutes in the Premier League and Chanpionship, and picked up 4 cards in the process, which worked out at 0.49 per 90, or one every other game in effect,

He’ll he up against Manor Solomon and Junior Firpo down his side, with Dan James also moving over that side at times to rotate with Solomon. He’s in for a tough evening and we can’t see him avoiding a caution.

Joel Piroe has a combined 20 goals contributions this season, with 14 goals and 6 assists. One of those assists came in the reverse fixture, setting up a goal for Mateo Joseph.

He seems to be particularly dangerous away from home, perhaps thriving with the extra space afforded to him. In Leed’s last 6 away games, Piroe has 5 goals and 2 assists.
