Leeds United Eye Back-to-Back Wins as Crystal Palace Visit Elland Road

45 minutes ago·2 min

Leeds United host Crystal Palace at Elland Road this Sunday in the Premier League 2026/27 season, with kick-off scheduled for 2:00pm BST. The match is available to watch live on Sky Sports in the United Kingdom, Peacock in the United States, and Stan Sport in Australia.

Leeds riding high after Newcastle rout

Daniel Farke's side arrive at this fixture in fine form, sitting third in the Premier League table after a commanding 4-1 victory over Newcastle United at Elland Road on Monday. That result stretched their unbeaten home run to a sequence that dates back to March, with the side losing just one of their last 13 league games.

Despite their lofty position, Farke has kept expectations grounded, insisting that Premier League survival remains the primary objective in the club's second season back in the top flight.

On the team news front, midfielder Ilia Gruev is set to make his first appearance of the season, while Harry Wilson misses out with a quad injury. Striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin carries extra momentum into this fixture after scoring four goals in four matches earned him a recall to the England squad.

Palace searching for consistency

Crystal Palace arrive at Elland Road sitting 16th in the table and still finding their footing under manager Pierre Sage. Their league form has been inconsistent — a 3-2 home defeat to newly-promoted Ipswich Town just eight days ago was a sobering reminder of the work still ahead.

However, there are encouraging signs. Palace have won three of their last four matches across all competitions, most recently a commanding 4-0 Europa League victory over Polish champions Lech Poznan on Thursday.

Winger Ismaila Sarr made his first appearance of the 2026/27 campaign in that game, returning from a groin injury that, combined with a transfer saga involving Liverpool that ultimately came to nothing, kept him sidelined at the start of the season. His return is a welcome boost for Sage, though striker Jean-Philippe Mateta and goalkeeper Dean Henderson both remain unavailable through injury.
