Leeds United's solid start to the season compared to newly promoted clubs over the last five seasons

How does Leeds United’s record after six games compare to newly promoted clubs over the last five Premier League seasons?

Leeds United have enjoyed a promising start to their return to the Premier League and head into Saturday’s home clash with Tottenham Hotspur with an opportunity to move into the top half of the table.

After starting their season with a narrow home win against Everton, Daniel Farke’s side went on to claim just win point from their next three games with a heavy defeat at Arsenal followed by a goalless draw with Newcastle United and an agonising late loss at Fulham.

However, the last week has provided some cheers for the Whites after they secured four points from their last two games by coming from a goal down to land a 3-1 win at Wolves before being forced to settle for a point at home to Bournemouth on Saturday.

That all means Farke’s men have a more than credible eight points from their first six games of the campaign - but how does that compare to newly promoted clubs over the last five seasons?
