Leeds United v Crystal Palace preview

Marcelo Bielsa’s side are currently 17th in the league table with just two wins from 13 league matches.

After managing to finish 9th in the table last year, Leeds were expected to build on it this season and challenge for Europa League qualification at the very least.

Instead, the Whites find themselves in a relegation dogfight and it remains to be seen whether they can turn their season around.

Meanwhile, Palace are coming into this game on the back of a home defeat against Aston Villa and Patrick Vieira’s side will be hoping to bounce back strongly. The Eagles are currently 11th in the league table.

Leeds United v Crystal Palace form guide

Leeds have failed to win 11 of their last 13 league matches but they have an impressive home record against Crystal Palace. They have managed to beat the Eagles in their last six meetings at Elland Road and they have also managed to score at least twice in each of those games.

Palace will have to tighten up at the back in order to grind out a vital away win here. They have conceded at least twice in seven of their last eight league matches away from home.

Leeds United v Crystal Palace prediction

Prior to the defeat against Aston Villa, Palace were doing well in the Premier League and they were unbeaten in five league matches.  The Londoners will be hoping to produce a reaction here and they will be eyeing all three points against a vulnerable Leeds side.

Meanwhile, the Whites have picked up just one win in their last six Premier League outings and the home fans will be desperate for the players to step up and deliver a match-winning performance.

Neither side are particularly well organized at the back and they will fancy their chances of outscoring each other.

21 goals have been scored in the last six meetings between these two sides and this one should be no different.
