Fulham vs Leeds: A Crucial Match for the Visitors
Fulham will take on Leeds in Saturday’s early match, and this is a crucial match for the visitors in the fight against the drop. Fulham were competing for European places up until a run of five defeats put them out of the race. Despite the poor run, the season will be deemed as an overwhelming success for Marco Silva’s team. This is the first season back in the top-flight, and the threat of relegation never really loomed.
Leeds have been comprehensively beaten in their last two matches, losing 5-1 to Spurs before being hammered 6-1 by Liverpool. Javi Garcia has the unenviable task of picking his players up and getting them prepared for what will be a massive few weeks for Leeds United. The club’s future in the Premier League will almost certainly be decided by their next three results.
Analysis and Betting Tips
Clean sheets have been hard to come by for Leeds, and they have conceded in nine of their last ten matches, with their opponents averaging 2.4 goals per game over that period. Javi Garcia’s team have also proven themselves to be capable of finding the net, scoring in their last six league matches. They will view this game as an opportunity to pick up some vital points ahead of their matches with fellow relegation candidates.
For our longer odds bet, we are backing goals and cards in this one. There have been four goals or more in five of Leeds’ last six matches, and an early goal for either side could see this one open up. Peter Bankes is in charge of this one, and he ranks highly amongst the Premier League referees in terms of cards. His average of 4.38 cards per game is well above the league average of 3.81 cards. This one has the potential to spill over due to its importance for Leeds.
In conclusion, this match is crucial for Leeds in their fight against relegation, and they will be looking to pick up some vital points.
