Leeds, led by Daniel Farke, are aiming to improve their position in the Sky Bet Championship after a mixed start to the season.

Leeds United’s Season So Far

Leeds currently sit ninth in the Championship. 

They started the season with two draws but secured back-to-back wins against Sheffield Wednesday and Hull City before losing to Burnley. 

Farke, who previously managed Norwich City to success, will be keen to bounce back.

Key Player: Ethan Ampadu

A player to watch is Leeds captain Ethan Ampadu, a versatile Welsh international who joined the club in 2023. 

As a defensive midfielder and center-back, Ampadu is vital to Farke’s strategy, having already made 58 appearances for Leeds.

Cardiff has a strong historical record against Leeds, winning 29 of their 64 encounters. 

Their last victory came in June 2020 with a 2-0 scoreline. 

With home advantage, Cardiff will be looking to build on this as they aim for another important win. 

Fans are eager for an intense match with both teams fighting for crucial points.
