Prediction, Odds & Betting tips for Liverpool vs. Leeds at English Premier League
Liverpool faces Leeds United in the closing game of Saturday’s English Premier League schedule. This is Premiership’s 14th round, which says we are deep into the championship. The situation for both sides isn’t perfect. Liverpool is eighth in the standings, 12 points behind the leaders Arsenal, presenting very inconsistent performances. Meanwhile, Leeds is in the relegation zone for the moment, with only nine points in 11 games. Also, the Peacocks are arguably the worst form of all the EPL teams.
Liverpool
The Reds are playing the hot and cold game. One week they shine, and the next, they suffer a disaster. Losing to Nottingham Forest, 1-0 was a kick in the teeth, while on the other side, beating Man City the week before with the same result and winning in Amsterdam against Ajax 0-3 were fantastic.
Liverpool has four wins in the past five games, and what is encouraging for Jurgen Klopp is the fact that his defense kept a clean sheet in three of the recent four events, which is a significant improvement compared to the start of the year. This unit is still experiencing all sorts of trouble in the back line, but they are much better now.
The attack struggles from time to time, yet three goals in Amsterdam should boost the morale a bit. There are plenty of injured players in L’Pool’s locker room, which might be one reason they aren’t consistent.
Leeds
We’ve said that the Peacocks are in terrible shape lately. They are without a victory in the past eight EPL games and right now have four defeats in a row. So it’s no wonder to see them in the relegation zone.
Though, there is plenty of time for them to get away from the bottom. Leicester is only two points away, and the Peacocks could easily jump to the middle of the table with two triumphs in a row. Only, they need to find a way how to do that.
The team from Elland Road is very bad on the road, winning just one point since the season kicked off. That was in Southampton in the very first away game, and after that, Leeds lost four in a row, allowing 10 goals while scoring only three.
Liverpool: Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Henderson, Fabinho; Elliott, Firmino, Nunez; Salah
Leeds: Meslier; Kristensen, Llorente, Cooper, Firpo; Adams, Roca; Harrison, Rodrigo, Sinisterra; Bamford
The Reds devastated Leeds in both meetings last year, 0-3 at Elland and 6-0 at Anfield.
Liverpool will easily defeat Leeds, who is in terrible shape, and we expect the Reds to be very confident while doing so. Try Liverpool covering a 1.5 handicap if you want to increase the profits.
Our verdict: Liverpool
