Leeds United vs Leicester City: Preview and Expert Football Prediction 

The Premier League resumes this week with two relegation-threatened sides, Leeds United and Leicester City, battling for three points at Elland Road this Tuesday.

Both sides are separated by one point after 32 games and are among the nine teams currently fighting for their lives in the Premier League.

Leeds United find themselves at the head of what might be a five-horse race in 16th place since the bottom five clubs are only separated by as many points. 

They have not helped their course recently after their 2-1 defeat to Fulham last time out made it three defeats in a row for Javi Gracia’s side.

A return to Elland Road usually helps their course, but they’ve been bad in their recent home games, suffering heavy 5-1 and 6-1 defeats to Crystal Palace and Liverpool, respectively. 

Nerves might be exacerbated when a desperate Leicester City visits them then, especially with Leeds winning only one of the last nine head-to-head meetings (D3, L5) and keeping only one clean sheet then.

Meanwhile, Leicester took a giant step towards their step to survival with a 2-1 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers last time out. 

The result ended a run of four straight losses and ten competitive games without a win for the Foxes. But the result kept them waiting for a clean sheet for another game.

Leicester are the only club in Europe’s top-five leagues without a top-flight clean sheet since the World Cup. It’s now been 17 PL matches since their last shutout.

But they would be okay with it as long as they keep getting three points, as that win against Wolves made them climb out of the bottom three into the coveted 17th place.

Securing back-to-back wins for the first time since February will therefore see them leapfrog their hosts and give them their first league double over Leeds this century after winning the reverse fixture 2-0 in October. 

The Foxes have either been the hunter or the hunted on the road this season, though, as they’ve only drawn a league-low one away match.

Meanwhile, twenty of Leeds’ PL matches this season have seen both teams score a league-high. So a BTTS/GG game should be expected here.
