Dominic Calvert-Lewin on verge of monumental feat not seen at Leeds by an Englishman for 25 years
Dominic Calvert-Lewin is aiming to score for a fourth consecutive Premier League game when Leeds United face Brentford on Sunday.
The striker has been in fine form in recent outings, which has helped move Daniel Farke’s side out of the relegation zone.
It has been a dramatic turnaround for Calvert-Lewin, who had been slammed for his previous performances for Leeds.
Now, he is aiming to continue his form at the Gtech Community Stadium on Sunday as the Peacocks face the Bees.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin looking to score for fourth consecutive Premier League game
The striker’s form has not gone unnoticed in the Premier League.
The former Everton attacker was once a consistent Premier League goalscorer until injuries completely derailed his career.
Now, Calvert-Lewin has even been tipped to be recalled by England after his recent goalscoring run, with Chris Suttin labelling him as “sensational”
However, while this form has been rare for the 28-year-old in recent years, it is also uncommon at Elland Road.
According to BBC Sport on 11 December, if Calvert-Lewin finds the net against Brentford, he will become the first Englishman since April 2000 at Leeds United to net in four consecutive Premier League matches.

Can Calvert-Lewin guide Leeds to survival?
According to Fotmob on 11 December, everything indicates that Calvert-Lewin can help oversee Leeds’ survival.
The striker is averaging 0.42 goals a match, an impressive feat, while also producing 2.84 shots a game.
On top of this, he is also creative, making 1.05 chances for his teammates per match.
| Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s Premier League stats this season | Per 90 minutes |
| Goals | 0.42 |
| xG | 0.48 |
| Shots | 2.84 |
| Chances created | 1.05 |
| Duels won | 6.74 |
| Touches in opposition box | 4.74 |
Therefore, if he keeps this up, the addition of the striker on a free transfer will be a bargain, and there is no reason why he can’t guide Leeds to survival.
Hopefully, this form will continue throughout the rest of 2025 and into the new year.
