The Whites play host to Walsall at Elland Road at tea-time on Saturday, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The majority of those games have been won by Leeds.
The last time the two teams met at Elland Road was more than a decade ago, in January 1995, when they eased past their opponents in a high-scoring 5-2 thriller, in an FA Cup match, but only after extra-time.

Recent respective form guides
Leeds United's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. Only 5 goals have been registered in this time, with 7 in the wrong end.
Walsall's away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. The Saddlers have a narrow positive goal difference over these games, with 7 goals for and 5 against.
Leeds' 54 points from 37 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position. Walsall lie just outside the play-off positions in the Coca-Cola League One, picking up 56 from their 37 games so far.

FootyMad's prediction ...
It's been a distinctly poor show from Leeds at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Whites will at least gain a draw. No-score draw
