Leeds vs Leicester City Predictions

• Over 2.5 goals has landed in five of Leeds’ last eight Championship matches
• Eight of Leicester’s last ten games have gone over 2.5 goals
• Both teams have scored in seven of the Foxes’ last nine away matches

Exciting encounter expected at Elland Road

The weekend’s feature match in the Championship is scheduled for Friday evening, with league leaders Leicester heading to Elland Road to take on second-placed Leeds, with the hosts knowing a win would see them close the gap at the top of the division to just six points.

However, despite the Whites’ excellent form that has seen them win their last eight matches – seven of those to nil – they will need to be at their very best if they are to get the better of the Foxes, who have been brilliant all season, won nine of their last 12 Championship away games and will be looking to bounce back after a shock loss to Middlesbrough on Saturday.

Both sides boast a plethora of attacking talent and Daniel Farke and Enzo Maresca are two extremely forward-thinking managers, so it would be no surprise to see plenty of goals flow at Elland Road this Friday.

Top two to put on a show

Over 2.5 goals has landed in five of Leeds’ last eight Championship matches while eight of Leicester’s last ten games have seen the same bet land and, given the Foxes have managed just two clean sheets in their last 12 Championship away games, there could be plenty of net-bulging action in this clash.

Leeds have excelled defensively in recent weeks, recording clean sheets in seven of their last eight league games, but the challenge of facing Leicester proposes a much tougher assignment , as only two of those wins to nil came against sides in the top half.

With both sides so talented going forwards, goals at both ends and plenty of them should be expected on Friday.
