Rodrigo faces the Cherries having scored in back-to-back Gameweeks, at home to Fulham, and then at Liverpool.

Those were his first goals since he scored four, provided an assist and earned 35 points from Leeds' opening three fixtures.

Listed as a midfielder in Fantasy, Rodrigo's role as a forward this season has significantly improved his attacking threat.

His six goals are just one fewer than his best total of seven in the 2020/21 campaign.

Video is currently not available.

The underlying statistics show why he has been such a big success this season.

Rodrigo's 33 shots, 25 shots in the box and six big chances all place among the top-five midfielders in 2022/23 Fantasy.

Indeed, he has averaged a goal every 118.7 minutes, quicker than any other midfielder who has scored more than once this term.

Cherries dip

AFC Bournemouth visit Elland Road in poor form. They have picked up just one point from their last four matches, conceding at least twice on three of those occasions.

They have allowed opponents a league-high 71 shots in the last four Gameweeks, while their total of 46 shots in the box conceded also places among the worst three sides in that period.

Rodrigo is well placed to profit from his opponents' troubles and extend his run of goals this weekend.
