Leeds United secured a magnificent 4-1 win over Crystal Palace on Saturday to take them further clear of the Premier League relegation zone.<\/strong><\/p>\n Dominic Calvert-Lewin was the hero once again for Leeds<\/a>, scoring a quick brace to give the Whites a 2-0 half-time lead at Elland Road.<\/p>\n Ethan Ampadu<\/a> added a third on the hour mark, with Justin Devenny pulling one back for Palace, before Anton Stach<\/a> curled in a delightful free-kick in the final seconds.<\/p>\n Despite the 4-1 win, there was a bit of tension between Noah Okafor<\/a> and one other Leeds player during the game.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Noah Okafor fumes at Lucas Perri<\/p>\n The spirits are clearly high around the Leeds squad at the moment, as they extended their unbeaten run to four games against Crystal Palace.<\/p>\n Daniel Farke\u2019s<\/a> side are now six points clear of the Premier League relegation zone and seem to be going from strength to strength each week.<\/p>\n However, during the win over Palace, Okafor was left fuming at goalkeeper Lucas Perri in an unseen moment.<\/p>\n As per Graham Smyth for the Yorkshire Evening Post<\/a>, the Leeds forward was \u201chopping mad\u201d after Perri refused to play him the ball and start a quick counterattack, instead holding onto possession and slowing the game down.<\/p>\n The Whites\u2019 shot-stopper gave Okafor a long stare following the dispute, but ironically threw him the ball just minutes later, so clearly took the 25-year-old\u2019s advice on board.<\/p>\n Leeds continue their superb home form<\/p>\n Elland Road is a real fortress for Leeds<\/a> in the Premier League, and the intense atmosphere on Saturday evening powered Farke\u2019s side on to another famous result.<\/p>\n Following a 3-1 win against Chelsea and a 3-3 draw with Liverpool, the Whites have now picked up seven points from their last three games at home.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Crystal Palace came into the contest as the team with the best away form in the Premier League, but any threat they posed was completely blocked out by Leeds.<\/p>\n Farke has got his side playing some brilliant football, and with Calvert-Lewin<\/a> on a sensational goalscoring run, the West Yorkshire outfit have a real chance of avoiding relegation.<\/p>\n Enjoyed this article?<\/strong> Stay connected with all the latest Leeds United news, updates, and behind-the-scenes content by following us on our new Instagram account \u2013@motleedsnews<\/a><\/p>\n ![\"Lucas](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/imago1069028118-1-1024x683.jpg\")
