In the match between Leeds United and West Bromwich Albion on August 18, 2023 at 19:00 EEST, both teams ended with a 1-1 scoreline. The teams appeared equally matched in their respective performances, and the final result undeniably confirms the close contest.

In terms of ball possession in the final third, Leeds United generated 15 shots at goal compared to West Bromwich's 12. However, West Bromwich demonstrated a higher accuracy rate, with only 3 shots off target compared to Leeds' 5. These stats may suggest that Leeds had more control and created more chances, but they struggled with final execution.

The goalkeepers from both sides had a busy night. The Leeds' goalkeeper made a total of 5 saves, thus indicating that West Bromwich had quality shots in spite of their fewer attempts. Nonetheless, West Bromwich’s goalkeeper was the busier of the two, making 7 saves, reflecting the pressure exerted by Leeds throughout the match.

When it came to corner kicks, Leeds had an upper hand with 6 compared to West Bromwich’s 4, suggesting once again, stronger offensive pressure from Leeds. Meanwhile, in terms of discipline, West Bromwich fell short with a higher number of fouls at 16, compared to Leeds' 12, hence indicating a possible lack of defensive discipline.

In terms of substitutions, Leeds used all 3 of their allowed changes, whereas West Bromwich made only 2. The strategy may hint at Leeds' desire for fresh legs and tactics to break the deadlock, while West Bromwich possibly aimed at maintaining stability by sticking to their initial formation and strategies.

Offside trap seemed to be more effectively utilized by Leeds United, catching West Bromwich Albion offside four times. The latter only managed to do so twice. This suggests Leeds had a more organized defensive line, posing challenges for West Brom in breaking past the final line.

All these statistical factors reveal the different game styles each team employed, resulting in an evenly-matched contest where neither team managed to get the upper hand. While Leeds appeared to exercise more control and created more chances, their inability to effectively capitalize on these opportunities along with West Bromwich's solid defense and shot accuracy kept the match tied at 1-1.
