West Bromwich Albion 1-0 Leeds United highlights: Diangana goal seals back-to-back defeats for Farke's men

Leeds United make the trip south to The Hawthorns on Friday, December 29 where Carlos Corberan's Baggies await.

These two sides could not be separated earlier this season as the Whites were held to a 1-1 draw by the Baggies at Elland Road back in August. Now, both teams find themselves firmly in play-off contention come the end of the season, although Leeds' sights remain set on automatic promotion.

Corberan's outfit have proven difficult to beat this term and most recently saw off prolific scorers Norwich City by a 1-0 scoreline on home turf. Leeds' last visit to this ground, however, delivered one of the side's most impressive displays en route to a ninth-place Premier League finish back in 2020/21 as a Raphinha-inspired United ran out 5-0 victors.
