Leeds United EPL Betting Information

In their last match, 7th placed Leeds United recorded a 1-0 shutout win against Sheffield United which followed their 4-3 Premier League win over Fulham. Leeds has plenty of momentum having won seven of their past 10 matches, with a penalty shootout loss to Hull City (1-1) in the English Carabao Cup and a 4-3 loss to Liverpool. Leeds are having no problems with their attack, scoring 26 goals in their past 10 games, while their defense is getting the job done having allowed just 10 points against them.

Not only will this be the first match for these two teams against each other this season, but they haven’t faced off against each other since a 2013 FA Cup match which Manchester City won 4-0. In the EPL the two teams haven’t met for 16 years when Leeds won 2-1 with the home ground advantage. Historically the two teams have met 81 times and the games have been evenly matched with Leeds winning 33 and Manchester City winning 36.

Leeds United vs Manchester City EPL Betting Prediction

Oddsmakers have Manchester City firm favorites for this week 4 gam but we fancy the fact the two teams haven’t played for so long, that they have had trouble drawing form lines between the two teams. No doubt Man City deserve favouritism but are under the odds in our opinion. Leeds are coming in to the game with plenty of confidence and have a capable attack. The -111.11 Leeds +1.5 in Asian Handicap betting is one way to play this game. The other which is my preferred play is the total game over 2.5 goals bet at +218. If Leeds are to upset the bookmakers markets and be competitive, then Patrick Bamford will find the net making his anytime goalscorer odds very attractive.
