Having finished last season on an upward trajectory, Leeds have come out of the blocks flying and have taken eight points from four games to make an unbeaten start to the new campaign.

A 4-1 win at home to Newcastle last time out will have confidence high at Elland Road and they are odds-on to see off Crystal Palace, who have suffered three defeats in four league matches under Pierre Sage.

Leeds to win

The manner of Leeds' 4-1 win at home to Newcastle last season was further evidence that they are on a steep upward curve and they should be fresher than the Eagles.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin to score

Calvert-Lewin has scored in his last two league games at Elland Road against Brentford and Newcastle and he bagged a first-half brace in a 4-1 win at home to Crystal Palace last season.

Anton Stach to commit two or more fouls

The German midfielder has committed at least two fouls in three of his four Premier League appearances this season and relishes a physical battle.

Leeds vs Crystal Palacepreview

Leeds inflicted a 4-1 defeat on Newcastle in their last Premier League outing at Elland Road and they can maintain their unbeaten start with a home victory over Crystal Palace.

Palace cruised past Lech Poznan 4-0 in the Europa League on Thursday and Leeds are one of a host of clubs who will believe they can force themselves into Europe this season.

Daniel Farke’s side have taken eight points from their first four matches, with draws against Brighton and Brentford highlighting their progress, while Palace are still adjusting to the methods of Pierre Sage.

The Eagles have assembled a more competitive squad but they have lost three of their first four Premier League games, leaking 11 goals, which includes a 3-2 defeat at home to Ipswich.

Leeds are full of belief and spearheaded by a confident striker in Dominic Calvert-Lewin so Palace should be fearing the worst and they were swatted aside 4-1 at Elland Road last season.

Leeds are unbeaten in six Premier League games at home, winning on four occasions, and only three teams had had fewer shots than Palace after their opening four league outings.

Key stats for Leeds vs Crystal Palace
