Leeds sit second in the table with 69 points, holding one of the two automatic promotion spots, while Sunderland are seven points adrift in fourth place.

The Black Cats head into the game on the back of a 2-0 win over Luton Town on February 12.

Leeds come off a dominant 4-0 win against Watford last Tuesday, in which they restricted the Hornets to just two shots on target, while creating four big chances and 16 attempts from inside the box.

Although they failed to score in their previous match against Millwall on February 8, Leeds have found the net 13 times in their last four games. With 66 goals scored in the Championship this season, they have netted at least 15 more than any other team in the division.

Farke’s side has also been strong defensively, keeping seven clean sheets in their last eight matches.

Leeds are on track to finish the season with 99 points, a total that would be the joint seventh-highest in Championship history.

Heading into Monday’s clash, Leeds’ form has been impressive, with 11 wins in their last 16 matches and only one defeat during that run.

At home, the Lilywhites remain unbeaten in 13 Championship games, winning 12 and drawing one, with their last three victories coming by a combined score of 12-0.
