"However, despite marking their return from October's international break with an eye-catching 2-1 victory at home against Newcastle, Fabian Hurzeler's men are still searching for some crucial stability. Watching their EFL Cup adventure come to an end on Wednesday night as they fell to a 2-0 loss away at Arsenal, the former St. Pauli boss has seen his squad register just a single win from any of their previous four appearances across all competitions."
"With it no secret that Daniel Farke's men simply have their sights set on painting their Premier League status this season, the former Norwich boss is also searching for some essential consistency. Heading into October's international break with a 2-1 defeat at home against Tottenham, Saturday's guests have also shown their own respective defensive issues. Including a 5-0 drumming at the hands of Arsenal on August 23rd, Leeds have failed to record a single clean sheet from any of their previous six Premier League outings."
Brighton aim to return to the top half of the Premier League after narrowly missing out on another European campaign last season. Fabian Hurzeler's side beat Newcastle 2-1 after the international break but have managed just one win in their last four matches and exited the EFL Cup with a 2-0 defeat at Arsenal. Brighton lost 4-2 to Manchester United and have dropped out of the top half, without a clean sheet against top-flight opposition so far. Leeds beat West Ham 2-1 to boost their survival hopes, yet Daniel Farke's team have shown ongoing defensive issues, including a 5-0 loss to Arsenal and no clean sheets in their last six Premier League outings.
