Recent respective form guides
Leeds United's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Whites have scored 5, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
The away form of Southend is pretty dire, losing every single one of the last six matches played! While the Shrimpers have hit 5 goals, 17 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Leeds are just outside the promotion places, in 4th, having taken 74 points from 40 games. Southend are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League One with a return of just 38 points from their 40 games thus far.

FootyMad's prediction ...
