Team shape
How will the two teams set up?
Official line-ups are announced roughly an hour before kick-off.
At home
Leeds United
Leeds are a pragmatic mid-table team: sturdy out of possession at Elland Road, but short of the creativity to dictate a game.
Away
Brighton & Hove Albion
Brighton are well coached, with enough cutting edge to punish errors on the road at Elland Road. Their game is built on winning the midfield.
What could change
What would change the King Exchange prediction?
Team news and match events that would move our numbers.
If Brighton field a weakened XI
Rotation or a missing key player would take several points off their win chance. Line-ups drop an hour before kick-off.
If Leeds score first
The favourite must chase, and both the draw and the upset become far more likely.
If a red card arrives in the first hour
Playing with ten men rewrites the expected-goals picture, whichever team it hits.
