Leeds need a point to move out of the Premier League relegation zone when Aston Villa visit Elland Road on Sunday.
The Whites have lost four of their last five matches but the exception was a 2-1 win over West Ham in their last home game on October 24.
Villa lost their most recent away game 2-0 at Liverpool on November 1, interrupting a run of five league wins that continued with a 4-0 home victory over Bournemouth on November 9.

Leeds lineup vs Villa
Winger Wilfried Gnonto is back from injury on the bench for Leeds, but centre-back Sebastiaan Bornauw is absent following a knee issue.
“The most important thing is no-one came back injured,” manager Daniel Farke said of the international break, describing the camp as being in a “good mood”.
“I have all the players available. Not one player being injured is really, really good news. We also had proper training in the last week with the lads who were [not away].”
Farke added that Wales internationals Dan James, Joe Rodon, Karl Darlow and Ethan Ampadu were in particularly good spirits following their country’s 7-1 home win over North Macedonia on Tuesday.
Leeds United starting XI: Lucas Perri, Jayden Bogle, Joe Rodon, Pascal Struijk, Gabriel Gudmundsson, Sean Longstaff, Ethan Ampadu, Anton Stach, Brenden Aaronson, Lukas Nmecha, Noah Okafor
Leeds substitutes: Karl Darlow, Daniel James, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Joel Piroe, Jaka Bijol, Ao Tanaka, James Justin, Wilfried Gnonto, Ilia Gruev
Aston Villa lineup vs Leeds United
Centre-back Tyrone Ming and midfielder Amadou Onana are out for Villa but Ezri Konsa, Matty Cash and Lamare Bogarde are available following injury issues.
Youri Tielemans returns in place of Onana in their one change from the win over Bournemouth, with George Hemmings introduced on the bench.
The Villans have been managing forward Ollie Watkins’ fitness. “Some individual players can have small problems, and sometimes he’s not feeling 100% fit to play,” manager Unai Emery explained.
“He’s trying to work intelligently – sometimes resting, sometimes not doing all the work we are doing.
“Then we’re progressively trying to get him comfortable and confident to play, not feeling some pain and [finding] good form, scoring goals and [being able to provide] everything we do through him tactically, [making the most of] his skills and [ability to score] goals.
“We’re trying to support him and [monitor] him when sometimes he’s not feeling good or [achieving] his individual [fitness] objectives.”
Aston Villa starting XI: Emiliano Martinez, Matty Cash, Ezri Konsa, Pau Torres, Lucas Digne, John McGinn, Boubacar Kamara, Youri Tielemans, Emiliano Buendia, Morgan Rogers, Ollie Watkins
Villa substitutes: Marco Bizot, Victor Lindelof, Ross Barkley, Donyell Malen, Jadon Sancho, Ian Maatsen, Lamare Bogarde, Evann Guessand, George Hemmings
