Leeds United disciplinary record gives Daniel Farke edge over Leicester City, Southampton and Ipswich Town

Despite red cards for Illan Meslier and Joe Rodon this season, Leeds United have the best disciplinary record in the Championship by some margin.

The Whites' infamous 'Dirty Leeds' moniker could hardly be further from the truth in 2023/24 with the team picking up the fewest cautions of any side in the second tier.

Leeds' impressive disciplinary record has seen the team face minimal suspensions, with only Meslier and Rodon serving bans for their transgressions, while no United player has had to sit out games due to a one-match suspension for five yellow cards, or a two-game ban for ten cautions.

Promotion rivals Leicester City, Ipswich Town and, in particular, Southampton have all fallen foul of the law more frequently which could yet have repercussions during the Championship run-in.

Here's how every team compares to Farke's squeaky clean Whites.
