Leeds had the great misfortune to leave their match against Arsenal last Saturday empty-handed.
The Peacocks had a big portion of the game under control, but when Patrick Bamford came off the bench in the second half, he had a goal disallowed and missed a penalty.
However, after witnessing that kind of performance against the section leaders, Jesse Marsch has many reasons to be pleased.
Leeds will visit rivals Fulham in Gameweek 13 after playing Leicester on Thursday night. Both teams are in the bottom half of the table.
Leeds has gone five league games without a three-pointer after last weekend's 0-1 loss to Arsenal, so this is definitely a game they can win.
Even more significant for the hosts is that they should have plenty of room to shoot past Fulham's porous back line in this final third.
Under Marco Silva, Fulham play a very attacking brand of football. The fact that such an approach does in fact produce results is the manager's favorite part in Portuguese.
Many people anticipated the Cottagers to be in the relegation fight, but after 11 games, they are comfortably seated in the center of the Premier League standings.
In September of last year, these two teams last faced off in the third round of the League Cup, with Leeds winning on penalties after a scoreless draw throughout regulation.
Leeds has now defeated Fulham four times in a row following head-to-head competition (counting this win on penalties as well).
At least three goals were scored in each of the last four league head-to-head matches between these rivals.
Given their impressive performance against Chelsea the previous weekend, Leeds shouldn't miss this chance to secure the much-needed victory.
We'll take the 3.00 odds on offer for a bet on Leeds to win and Over 2.5 goals total. With Patrick Bamford to score anytime at the 2.60 odds in what is predicted to be a high-scoring game, there is also excellent value.
