Tuesday night also brings us action from the Championship with a clash between Leeds United and West Brom as the betting tips continue at Elland Road in this mouthwatering encounter.
Leeds United Prediction – Can Leeds take comfort from Elland Road?
A 1-0 defeat away from home at The Valley against Charlton Athletic saw Leeds United on the end of a surprise result in London on the weekend, as recent results haven’t all gone the Yorkshire club’s way in recent weeks.
A 1-0 defeat at home to Swansea City a couple of weeks ago turned up another surprise result for Marcelo Bielsa’s side and even though they’ve gained victories over Stoke City and Barnsley on the road, these wins have been achieved against teams currently occupying places in the bottom three of the Championship.
Leeds have also been unconvincing so far on home turf at Elland Road as they’ve won just 1 of their first 4 matches which was a 1-0 win over Brentford, but the loss to Swansea and draws with Nottingham Forest and Derby County, whilst difficult matches, means that the hosts have earned just 5 points from the first 12 on offer at home this season.
Indeed, it’s now just 1 win out of their last 7 matches at Elland Road in the Championship so it seems bizarre that Leeds have been installed as clear favourites to win this match tonight.
West Brom Prediction – Can West Brom preserve unbeaten start?
A 2-0 win away at QPR not only extended West Brom’s unbeaten start to this new Championship season but it also lifted The Baggies up into top spot of the second tier ahead of these midweek fixtures over Tuesday and Wednesday night.
West Brom now remain the only side yet to taste defeat so far in this season’s Championship and the west midlands club seem to be thriving under new manager, Slaven Bilic, despite fears prior to the start of the season that the visitors would have lost too much firepower.
Former strikers, Gayle and Rodriguez, were to be big losses to West Brom’s forward line this term but other players have stepped up in their absence, namely the likes of midfielders Phillips (4 goals) and Diangana (3 goals) as well as the creative Pereira who looks a shrewd acquisition.
The Baggies have won 3 of their last 4 matches with wins over Blackburn Rovers, Huddersfield Town and QPR, while away from home, Slaven Bilic’s side are unbeaten in their last 5 matches which includes picking up wins at Nottingham Forest and Luton Town.
Key-Facts – Leeds United v West Brom
- Leeds have won just 1 of their last 7 home matches in the Championship
- West Brom are the only side that are unbeaten in the Championship
- The Baggies have won 3 of their last 4 matches in the Championship
Betting Tips Verdict
Leeds United still seem to be trying to find their feet this season but West Brom have made a solid start and look a hard team to beat.
