Leeds maintained their unbeaten home record for the season, smashing four past hapless neighbours Huddersfield Town. Daniel Farke's side had some making up to do, after their calamitous performance against Stoke, but more than made up for it with a dominant, stylish and clinical first half display which saw most of the travelling contingent make a swift half-time Elland Road exit.

Leeds began their road to redemption on 20 minutes when Rutter, (on the edge of his own box) released Summerville down the left channel, before cutting inside towards goal; twelve seconds later Leeds were ahead. Unselfishly, the flying Dutchman released James to the right of him, but surrounded by a sea of black shirts, launched a ferocious drive from the edge of area, beating Lee Nicholls at his near post.

Leeds doubled their lead on 31 minutes when Summerville, enjoying his new inverted striker role, tried his luck from distance after weaving his way in and out of traffic. Unsighted, his right foot curling shot deceived the Huddersfield shot-stopper, as the ball flew past him, just inches away.

A few minutes later James was back on the score sheet, with again Summerville the provider. James latched on to Jimmy's inch perfect through ball before lifting it over the keeper. Not to be outdone, Summerville also grabbed his first half brace deep into first half stoppage time, after good work from Rutter.

Leeds took their foot off the gas in the second half. They continued to dominate, but with the game already won, lacked that killer instinct in front of goal. The visitors netted a consolation twenty minutes from time, after Meslier could only fumble Thomas's shot (rom all of 30 yards), allowing Helik an easy tap-in.
