Strong defensively in midfield
Ampadu recorded three tackles (two won), three clearances and two interceptions in Sunday's 0-0 draw against Crystal Palace.
Analysis: Ampadu produced another solid defensive performance from midfield and made an important intervention to deny Daichi Kamada a clear opportunity during the second half. The midfielder has recorded at least two interceptions in each of his five Premier League appearances this season, illustrating his consistency in breaking up opposition attacks. Ampadu remains an undisputed starter at the heart of Leeds' midfield.
Logs full 90 minutes again
Ampadu registered one shot (zero on goal) in Monday's 4-1 victory over Newcastle United.
Analysis: Ampadu has yet to miss a single minute of action in the 2026/27 season, but his contributions have come mostly on the defensive side of the ball. With nine tackles, nine interceptions and seven clearances so far, he's doing most of the work as the defensive anchor in front of the back three. He only has two shots off targets and three chances created to show for in the attacking third.
