Leeds United Preview – Can Leeds stage recovery?
New Leeds United manager, Jesse Marsch, has a job on his hands as he looks to guide Leeds United away from the relegation zone in the English top flight and his first task will be to tighten up what has been an extremely leaky defence which has shipped a total of 18 goals in their last five games.
This has resulted in Leeds losing their last five games on the trot and following defeats against Everton, Manchester United, Liverpool, Tottenham and Leicester City, former manager, Marcelo Bielsa, was also shown the exit door.
However, despite losing their last three games at home on the trot, an incoming new manager can often change the mood of the dressing room and the players are now fighting for a place in the team.
Aston Villa Preview – Can Villa win three on trot?
Aston Villa will certainly fancy their chances of doing so at Elland Road on Thursday night after recording back-to-back wins against south coast clubs, Brighton and Southampton, respectively, but the visitors will be wary of the wounded beast that is currently Leeds United.
Having won just three out of their last nine games overall in the Premier League, Aston Villa are by no means a guaranteed three points in this encounter especially as The Villains have lost six of their last 10 away games in the top flight as well.
