Leeds vs Wigan Prediction & Betting tips
Leeds United and Wigan Athletic cross the line on Elland Road on Good Friday. Both teams still have everything to play for. Time for a peek into the glass globe!
Leeds United:
Leeds United has been back in second place in the Championship for two weeks. After two consecutive victories against Preston North End and Sheffield Wednesday and two draws by Sheffield United, the lead of Leeds United on neighboring attacker Sheffield United is three points. It should be noted that the goal balance of Leeds United is three goals less than that of the competitor. The players of Elland Road have everything in their own hands to hold this place for direct promotion.
Manager Marcelo Bielsa looked ahead to the game against Wigan on Wednesday afternoon: ‘Diamond Cooper is the only doubt for the game against Wigan Athletic. I probably play with the same team as last Saturday. The position in the rankings of Wigan Athletic is not a good reflection of how strong they are. We have played more often in these games where we as the higher ranked team were the favorite and lost. We do not underestimate any team. In this phase it is all about winning. The result is paramount! ยด
Wigan Athletic:
Wigan Athletic achieved a creditable result in the fight against relegation last Sunday. In-house leader Norwich City was held at a 1-1 draw. For a long time, the used penalty kick by Reece James seemed to be enough for three points, but ten minutes before the end the Championship scorer gave the guests one more point when he scored his 27th goal of the season. The point achieved may still be important for Wigan Athletic at the end of the run, as number twenty-one is two points ahead of number twenty-two Rotherham United.
The game earlier this season in Wigan was won by Leeds United. The Latics took the lead through Reece James but Pablo Hernandez and Kemar Roofe gave Leeds United the win. This is not immediately a competition that Wigan Athletic must win. The home games in round forty-four and forty-six against Preston North End and Milwall seem to be crucial. A point to visit Leeds would be a huge windfall for Wigan Athletic.
