Elvedi had seven clearancesand one interception in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Brighton.

Plays first Premier League minutes
Elvedi generated one tackle (one won), three clearances and one interception in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Brentford.
Analysis: Elvedi came on in the 34th minute to replace the injured Joe Rodon (hamstring) on his Elland Road debut, making one tackle won, three clearances and one interception in 56 minutes as he helped Leeds stabilize defensively after an enforced change disrupted their back three. He was composed throughout a match where Brentford's attacking quality tested the Leeds back line on multiple occasions, and his composure under pressure provided immediate reassurance given the circumstances of his introduction. Elvedi has now made his first Premier League apperances and is set for a larger role until Rodon returns to full speed.
