Current form — Leeds v. Crystal Palace
The Whites hope to stop the rot
Leeds go into this encounter hoping to turn a page, as performances in recent matches have been pretty scrappy. Marcelo Bielsa’s side have been a tad mediocre in their last 3 matches, where a win has failed to come their way. Against Leicester, they gained a point in a 1-1 draw, before coming up short against Tottenham who ran out 2-1 winners. Lately, they managed to steal a point in a 0-0 with Brighton.
The Eagles hope to boost points tally
It has been a rollercoaster couple of weeks for Crystal Palace with performances showing little sign of stability. Patrick Vieira’s side have seen it all in their last 3 matches, which brought home 4 points. They claimed a 2-0 win against Wolves, before drawing 3-3 with Burnley. This little streak came to an end, when Aston Villa proved too strong in a 1-2 defeat for Crystal Palace.
According to the bookies, Leeds are favorites to win – but only just. A tight game appears on the cards here, and a draw with odds of 3.40 is a tempting option. A home win pays out at 2.45, while betting on the visitors grabbing all 3 points returns odds of 3.15.
