Leeds vs Leicester Prediction & Betting tips
Two teams that want to play football, Leeds United and Leicester City, meet each other on Elland Road on Monday evening. A preview before the game in West Yorkshire!
Leeds United:
That Leeds United is an asset to the Premier League is already clear after six matches for The Whites. Marcelo Bielsa presents us with Leeds United football that we would like to see: offensive and cared for. This is also possible because Leeds United has already taken the necessary points in the competition with that way of play. After six games, the counter is at ten points to be precise. For the time being, Leeds United only lost points in the duels with Liverpool (4-3 loss), Manchester City (1-1 draw) and Wolverhampton Wanderers (0-1 loss).
All other matches were won by Bielsa and his men. For example, Leeds United was still 0-3 too strong for Aston Villa on Monday evening. Star of the day was Patrick Bamford who accounted for all goals. Bamford is now on six hits in as many league appearances. These are excellent figures for a PhD candidate. Of course Bamford is not Harry Kane or Sergio Agüero, but by Leeds United standards Bamford is a great striker. Now the 27-year-old Englishman has nothing to complain about: his fellow players create enough opportunities for him.
Leicester City:
Leicester City has taken two points more than Leeds United. That is not surprising, because Leicester also has slightly better material on paper. A player like Jamie Vardy is of course a lot further than a Patrick Bamford. At Leicester City, the counter is therefore twelve out of six. The Foxes cannot be dissatisfied with this; Compared to last season, Brendan Rodgers’ team now even has one point more after six games. We also all know that Leicester fought to the last for a Champions League ticket last season. So that promises something.
The last three games that Leicester City played were all won. In the Europa League, Zorya Lugansk (3-0) and AEK Athens (1-2) were beaten in the past week and a half. In the Premier League, Leicester City was 0-1 too strong for Arsenal last weekend due to a goal from Jamie Vardy. The Europa League game with and in Athens, Greece, took place on Thursday evening and therefore they had enough rest at Leicester for the encounter with Leeds. A very tough week ahead of Leicester, because in addition to Leeds United, The Foxes still play against the Portuguese Sporting Braga and the Portuguese-tinted Wolverhampton. In these games, Leicester has to miss a number of important players.
