Leeds United Preview – Fifth victory on the bounce for Bielsa’s boys?

Leeds United have responded expertly well from a sticky patch of form over the Christmas period. Before drawing 1-1 with Brentford at Griffin Park in mid-February, the Whites had won just one of seven Championship games.

Leeds have hit back with four victories on the spin, beating Bristol City, Reading, Middlesbrough and Hull City without conceding a single goal. United secured successive 1-0 wins over Bristol City, Reading and Boro, but they ran riot against Hull at the KCOM Stadium last weekend, with Tyler Roberts (2), Luke Ayling and Pablo Hernandez getting the goals in a 4-0 romp.

Our betting prediction:
Leeds to win both halves
21/10

(odds taken 1700 GMT, Wednesday 4 March)

 
Leeds have been very strong at Elland Road this season. In fact, only Fulham and Preston North End have accumulated more home points thus far. The Yorkshire side have won nine of their past 13 Championship encounters at Elland Road.

With leaders West Bromwich Albion losing at home to Wigan Athletic last weekend, Leeds closed the gap at the top to just one point. Another three points on Saturday would take them a step closer to their Premier League dream.

Huddersfield Town Preview – Can the Terriers cause an upset in this West Yorkshire derby?

Danny Cowley’s Huddersfield Town have moved away from the bottom three after priceless back-to-back wins over Bristol City and Charlton Athletic. Having beaten the promotion chasing Robins 2-1 at home, the Terriers followed that up with a thumping 4-0 victory over Charlton at the John Smith’s Stadium last time out, with Karlan Grant (2), Steve Mounie and Juninho Bacuna getting the goals.

Five of their last six Championship wins have come on home soil, though. Huddersfield have struggled away from home this season, picking up just four wins from 17 matches. Their recent win at Hull remains their only away triumph since winning 1-0 at The Valley on December 10th.

Cowley’s Huddersfield have certainly improved of late, but the club from West Yorkshire are still only four points above the drop zone. Can the Terriers pick up a shock result at Elland Road on Saturday to move even further away from the bottom three?

 

Leeds United vs Huddersfield Town Betting Advice

Leeds have really got their season back on track with a string of wins at just the right time. If results go their way this weekend, they could even return to the top, which looked very unlikely a couple of months back.

 

Key Facts – Leeds United vs Huddersfield Town Betting Tip

  • Leeds have taken 13 points from the last 15 on offer, winning four in a row
  • Huddersfield head to Elland Road having won back-to-back home games
  • Both sides picked up 4-0 wins last weekend; Leeds won at Hull, while the Terriers beat Charlton at the John Smith’s

 

Huddersfield will be in high spirits after two wins on the spin, but Cowley’s boys have found life difficult away from the John Smith’s Stadium this season. It could be a long afternoon at Elland Road for the Terriers.

Second-half goals from Ezgjan Alioski and Pablo Hernandez gave Leeds a routine 2-0 win in the reverse match. With that in mind, put some money on United to beat Huddersfield without conceding again (21/20).
