Leeds went into the International Break with back to back wins under their belt, after seeing off local rivals Hull City. The Whites used their new found width to good effect, utilising Solomon's lightening fast pace down the left, terrifying opposition defenders in his wake. Even so, the Whites found it difficult to break down a Hull team content to get ten men behind the ball, and very occasionally counter, when opportunities arose.

Despite Leeds superiority, Ivor Pandur didn't have a great deal to do in the opening half. Bedia's ferocious drive could have given the visitors an unwarranted half-time lead, had it not been for Meslier's eye-catching save. Millar too was a constant threat down the left wing. He had an effort go narrowly wide just before the break.

As the game wore on, the hosts grew in stature, and Hull slowly began to tire. Leeds took a deserved lead on the hour mark when Mateo Joseph nipped in at the near post to steer home Solomon's cross, having left Will Jarvis and Lewie Coyle in his midst. The goal knocked the stuffing out of the visitors, who never looked like recovering.

Leeds doubled their lead with ten minutes left on the clock. Firpo's cross field pass found Piroe in acres of space on the right hand side of the box. He had time to take a touch, consider his options, before slotting the ball past Pandur to make the game safe.
