Leeds vs Crystal Palace Prediction & Betting tips
A very close race is looming in the Monday game of the Premier League, because the two opponents are currently equal on points in the table and have each been able to offer many convincing performances in the course of the season so far.
The last results of the away team are by no means to be despised and so a lot could be possible again in the coming game. After all, the Londoners, who have been established in the Premier League for years, have so far been extremely successful against the newcomers to the league.
Leeds United :
With six wins from the past twelve league games, the newcomer can look back on a more than impressive record. Since 1998 there has been a duel between Leeds United and Crystal Palace for the first time in “Elland Road”, with the odds indicating a clear home advantage for the hosts.
However, this is offset by a sensitive home weakness of the northern English, they could only look forward to a success in front of their own audience in three out of 10 games and the goal balance is negative at home.
In addition, the “Whites” have lost both Monday games against quite beatable opponents this season and that on top of that in their own stadium. The two home games in January were also lost.
There is now a risk of a rare crash landing, because Leeds have not lost three league games in a row at home since October 2017. A victory against the upcoming opponent does not seem completely absurd, but a good deal of work will be necessary in any case.
It is also noticeable that the team coached by Marcelo Bielsa scored numerous goals at the front, on average over 1.5 per game, but often conceded many goals at the back.
The bottom line is that we are extremely critical of the odds on a home win offered at Leeds United vs. Crystal Palace, because we are much more open about the starting position, in contrast to the providers.
Crystal Palace :
With two wins from the last two games behind them, the Londoners are on their way to the north of the country. The upcoming opponent brings back good memories, because in the first duel of the season, the Bielsa-Elf were swept 4-1 off the pitch.
So far, things have been going very well against the newcomers to the league, as all duels have been won here. So we are excited to see whether this series will continue into the second half of the season.
There were two league wins in one season for the “Eagles” against Leeds in 1986, so there is an historic opportunity ahead. The hopes weigh on the attacker Zaha, who is currently in top form and has already held nine goals this season.
As the suspensions / injuries in the Premier League show, head coach Hodgson can continue to build on the full strength of his team, which has already held four wins this season abroad.
However, the repeatedly inconsistent defenses could stand in the way of a possible success. Especially against the big players in the league, it has conceded numerous goals over and over again. Recently, however, a small upward trend was noticeable, because in the past six games the zero was kept three times.
