da bet nacional: Leeds United’s early-season positive form has been replaced with lacklustre performances and unwanted results.
da pinnacle: The Whites have not picked up a win in the Championship since Boxing Day when they earned a 2-1 triumph over Burton Albion away.
Since then, the club have recorded five defeats and four draws, while also making a managerial change.
Thomas Christiansen was replaced with Paul Heckingbottom earlier this week, and results have not exactly gone to plan.
In his opening two matches, Leeds have been beaten once and drawn twice, which has left them 11th in the table, eight points adrift of the playoff places.
Against Derby County on Wednesday night, Leeds relinquished their lead twice to draw 2-2 at Pride Park.

The match marked the return of Samuel Saiz, who had been banned for six matches for spitting at an opponent in the club’s FA Cup defeat to Newport County.
The attacking player came on as a 55th-minute substitute and slotted right back into proceedings.
If the club’s bid for promotion continues to dwindle, though, fans are worried that Saiz, along with other players, will leave Elland Road.
