Leeds United Team News
Leeds United is a pretty interesting team to watch in recent weeks. Their games are full of goals and there is a lot of entertainment. In the last four Leeds’ games we saw 22 goals, which is 5.5 goals per game.
Their form isn’t great at the moment. Leeds was without a win for eight games from the end of August to the end of October. Then they produce one incredible performance against Liverpool at Anfield and after that, they beat Bournemouth, again, in one incredible game which ended 4-3.
Before the World Cup break, they lose to Tottenham in, again, one amazing game by 4-3. They have a 2-1 and 3-2 lead but they conceded two goals in the last 10 minutes.
Leeds can score, but also Leeds is terrible in defence. That is the conclusion. They failed to score in four games this season, but also they kept only two clean sheets. In 14 games this season they conceded two or more goals on nine occasions.
The team from Yorkshire is currently in 15th place on the table with 15 points and four wins after 14 games. They won 11 of 15 points at home.
Manchester City Team News
With Arsenal and Liverpool, both had won their games, Man City is under pressure that must pick up all three points at Elland Road. They slipped to the 3rd place on the table after Newcastle also win and now they have eight points less than Arsenal, with a game in hand.
Pep’s team lost the last game in Premier League before the World Cup break against Brentford at home and this season after every bad result his players reacted with great performances. After every defeat or draw this season, Man City scored three or more goals in the next game.
Man City has the best attack in the league with 40 goals scored and the third-best defence with 14 goals conceded. They failed to score in only one game (against Liverpool) and but recently they are struggling with keeping a clean sheet. They kept only one in the last five games.
H2H
They played four times in the previous two seasons and Man City has two wins, Leeds Utd one, and one game ended with a draw. Three games ended with over 2.5 goals. In two games last season Man City scored 11 goals against Leeds.
Team News and Injuries
Leeds United: Stuart Dallas and Luis Sinisterra are injured. Tyler Adams is suspended. Illan Meslier is questionable.
Man City: Kalvin Phillips and Ruben Dias are out. Julian Alvarez will probably miss this game.
Leeds United vs. Manchester City Prediction
We expect two things at Elland Road – Goals and Manchester City winning three points. The defending champion can afford to lose points in two consecutive games in the league and with Arsenal, Newcastle, and Liverpool victories, they are under a little pressure.
Leeds is without Tyler Adams in the middle and that can be a huge problem for Jesse Marsch.
