After a solid draw against Norwich midweek thanks to a goal from Doukara, Leeds continue to search for that elusive first win under Darko Milanic. The Leeds boss will be getting more and more desperate for it with every passing game, though Wolves who currently sit in 4th will provide a stern test at Elland Road. Leeds form has been inconsistent recently, though Wolves have also dropped points to cool their early season assault on the top of the table. Kenny Jacket will be pleased with the 2-0 win over Middlesbrough last time out, and will be looking for his side to take all 3 points from this one as well. There's been a fair few games between these two, with Leeds slightly edging the previous league encounters. The last 6 meetings have shared the points almost exactly though, and there are always goals in this one.[/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #E0E0E0"]Leeds Wins 33 Draws 20 Wolves Wins 27[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="colspan: 4"][/TD] [TD="bgcolor: #E0E0E0"][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="colspan: 4"][/TD] [TD="bgcolor: #E0E0E0"][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="colspan: 4"][/TD] [TD="bgcolor: #E0E0E0"][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="width: 200"]Leeds Form[/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="width: 200"]Wolves Form[/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #E0E0E0"][/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [TABLE="width: 620, align: center"] [TR] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #A0A0A0, align: left"]D 1 - 1 Norwich[/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #006600, align: right"]Middlesbrough 2 - 0 W[/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #E0E0E0"]Last Game[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #880000, align: left"]L 2 - 1 Rotherham[/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #A0A0A0, align: right"]Millwall 3 - 3 D[/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #E0E0E0"]2 - 2[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #A0A0A0, align: left"]D 1 - 1 Sheff Wed[/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #A0A0A0, align: right"]Wigan 2 - 2 D[/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #E0E0E0"]Draw[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #A0A0A0, align: left"]D 0 - 0 Reading[/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #880000, align: right"]Huddersfield 1 - 3 L[/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #E0E0E0"]09/02/13 - Molineux[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #880000, align: left"]L 2 - 0 Brentford[/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #A0A0A0, align: right"]Reading 3 - 3 D[/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="width: 200, bgcolor: #E0E0E0"][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="colspan: 5"][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="colspan: 5"][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="colspan: 5"][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="colspan: 5"][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="colspan: 5"][/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [TABLE="width: 620, align: center"] [TR] [TD="width: 305"]Team News[/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="width: 305"]Damned's Starting XI[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="align: left"]Leeds With no notable absences, Milanic may persist with the same starting lineup who generally performed well against Norwich.

There have been under 2.5 goals scored in 9 of Leeds's last 10 home games in Championship. Wolves have scored at least 2 goals in their last 3 matches in Championship. Leeds have failed to win their last 5 matches in Championship. [/TD] [TD="width: 10"][/TD] [TD="align: left"]Even with the growing pressure for a first win under Darko, I can't see it coming in this game. Wolves have conceded a few in recent games, but they haven't had trouble finding the goal either. I've gone for a similar shape to the Norwich game as it seems to make quite a lot of sense given our attacking options. Adryan gets a start for me, though as with any of our attacking players with so many options he needs to prove himself.

Will Wolves continue a return to form and put a few passed our defence? Match Day Poll You know the score by now, or do you? Poll will close around 1 hour before kick off, so get those votes in!

Afternoon all. Sounded as though we put in a shft on Tuesday. So given that we'll be at home, I would say 3-2 Leeds. Oh and as ever a Dammed fine thread
Cheers fellas Didn't realise Duke was suspended. Time for a new bottle of sauce for me In that case, Sharp in for him in my line up
I'd play Antenucci up front with a five man midfield, Adryan playing off the main striker with Cook, Mowatt, Bianchi and Sloth making up the midfield. Time for Austin to make the impact sub role his own, think his style hinders a passing game. Same back four that started vs Norwich
Looks like another big crowd,south stand sold out again.Going to have to book earlier,got to go in NE corner.
Great thread but shame about team selection get rid of Mowatt, Austin & Pearce, replace with Cook, Sloth and Cooper and instead of Sharpe for the Duke Brian steps in and between them they score 14 goals
Great thread. Forgot Kenny's jacket is managing this lot. Is it my imagination or does he manage half the teams that play us at Elland road. I can't be arsed trying to make a prediction. I got none right so far this season
Get blackmountain in, Ha montenegro, Btw negro in spanish is not prounonced as neegro,the e is short as in next,negro not neegro, So no probs,it only means black anyway.
