Brentford defended well at Elland Road to secure a 0-0 draw against Leeds United on Saturday night.
There were very few chances in Yorkshire, but it was a point that saw the Bees end the night seventh in the Premier League heading into a three-week break.
Keith Andrews made two changes for the game, with Ethan Pinnock making his first start since December 2025 and Yehor Yarmoliuk also coming in from the off. Mikkel Damsgaard and Dango Ouattara are the players they replaced, with the former unavailable and the latter on the bench.
Before the game, there was a minute of applause for Chris Loftus and Kevin Speight, who were killed in Istanbul on the eve of Leeds' UEFA Cup semi-final tie against Galatasaray in April 2000.
The first shot of the encounter came on 17 minutes, when Michael Kayode's long throw was aimed into the six-yard box and flicked towards goal by Nathan Collins. It was never really troubling goalkeeper Karl Darlow, who caught the ball comfortably.
Leeds had a chance of their own shortly after, when Jayden Bogle's deflected cross looked like it was falling to Caoimhín Kelleher, but Dominic Calvert-Lewin out-jumped him and headed goalwards. Kayode was there to head it partially away, before it was cleared fully by his team-mate.
Both sides had half-chances before the break, which included an Igor Thiago shot that went wide and a Pinnock header into the gloves of Darlow, but nothing could break the deadlock.
Just a minute into the second half, an Anton Stach shot was blocked at one end, before the visitors had a good opportunity at the other end. Thiago nodded it on to Mathias Jensen, who looked to run into the space ahead of him in the final third; the midfielder took a slightly heavy touch and shot from a tight angle, which hit the side netting.
Ampadu had a good effort for Daniel Farke's side on 55 minutes, when the midfielder picked it up about 30 yards from goal. He drove forward and hit a rasping drive straight down the throat of Kelleher.
It was a game of few chances, but Leeds arguably had the better of the second period. With 15 minutes to play, Ao Tanaka struck from the edge of the box, but it was deflected away well by a Bees player.
Leeds had some set-pieces as the game ticked into additional time, which the west Londoners defended well, with both Thiago and Collins clearing well to secure a clean sheet and come away with a point.
