Leeds United extend unwanted unique record during Fulham defeat
Leeds United’s poor Premier League record in London took a further dent when the West Yorkshire club were beaten 1-0 by Fulham on Saturday.
The Elland Road club appeared set for their first away point of the season on 13 September, but Leeds summer signing Gabriel Gudmundsson‘s own goal ensured that Marco Silva’s men earned their first top-flight win this term.
Daniel Farke’s men have failed to win in the Premier League since their 1-0 victory over Everton on 18 August.
Meanwhile, Football Insider have exclusively revealed that Leeds are plotting a move for Fulham’s Harry Wilson ahead of the January transfer window.
Fulham defeat ensures woeful London record continues for Leeds
During the summer transfer window, Leeds missed out on re-signing Manor Solomon, while they are yet to score in open play in the Premier League this term.
Farke’s men once again lacked firepower as they were beaten by Fulham at Craven Cottage on 13 September.
Meanwhile, Opta statistician and Leeds fan Jonny Cooper wrote on X: “Nine consecutive Premier League defeats in London for Leeds now.
“What the hell is it about London that causes us to lose in so many different, humiliating and embarrassing ways?”
Daniel Farke must earn a victory over Wolves
After winning the Championship title last season, Leeds successfully beat Everton in a strong start to the new Premier League campaign.
| Leeds results | Premier League 2025/26 |
| Everton (H) | 1-0 W |
| Arsenal (A) | 5-0 L |
| Newcastle (H) | 0-0 D |
| Fulham (A) | 1-0 L |
Meanwhile, the Whites also did well to bounce back from their 5-0 defeat to Arsenal via a 0-0 draw with Champions League outfit Newcastle United on 30 August.
However, the last-minute manner of their defeat to Fulham will leave Farke worried by his side’s survival chances.
Furthermore, the West Yorkshire club have now scored just one Premier League goal in four matches, which came from the penalty spot against Everton.
Therefore, it is vital that Farke steers his side to victory against Wolves on Saturday, 20 September, as the Molineux club sit bottom of the top-flight table.
Newcastle’s 1-0 victory over Wolves on 13 September has ensured that Vitor Pereira’s men will head to Elland Road low on confidence, which Leeds must capitalise on.
Meanwhile, football commentator Ian Darke has weighed in on the early stages of Sean Longstaff’s Whites career in an MOT Leeds News exclusive.
