The match, which saw each side dominate at different times, ended 0‑0, leaving both teams to reflect on the positives and areas for improvement as they head into the next round of fixtures.

Leeds entered the game after a hard‑earned victory over Nottingham Forest, while Brentford came off a convincing win against Tottenham Hotspur.
