Leeds are struggling at the moment and are outside the top 10 of the Championship.

The West Yorkshire outfit have suffered six defeats in their last seven Championship matches.

Middlesbrough are in better form and also have a better team, and Garry Monk’s side will head into the match as favourites.

However, Leeds have home advantage, and if the Whites score the opening goal, then they will have a good chance of picking up all three points from the encounter.

Roofe has scored three goals and provided one assist in eight Championship starts for Leeds so far this season.
