Leeds United complicated plan for Palace revealed with surprise double request

Calvert-Lewin became the first Leeds player since 2003 to score in five consecutive Premier League games as Leeds moved six points clear of relegation with a 4-1 win.

  • Dominic Calvert-Lewin struck twice to hand Leeds United a 4-1 win over Crystal Palace at Elland Road, boosting their survival bid six points clear of relegation.
  • Before kickoff, Crystal Palace had rotated their XI 48 hours after their Europa Conference League tie, while Dominic Calvert-Lewin entered on a scoring run chasing Mark Viduka's record.
  • Both Leeds goals unfolded from set-piece chaos via Ethan Ampadu long throws and Jaka Bijol flicks, with Ampadu scoring from a half-cleared corner and Anton Stach sealing the win with a free-kick.
  • Calvert-Lewin hit a personal milestone, becoming the first Leeds player since Mark Viduka to score in five straight games, while Daniel Farke praised his professionalism and called him a key player.
  • The victory boosts Leeds' survival prospects after a recent rocky spell for Daniel Farke, with Calvert-Lewin's form sparking England talk as Farke said ` knows he can call me any time`.
