Leeds United Preview – Will the Whites secure a precious three points?
Leeds United have made a disappointing start to their league season. The Whites hover just above the drop zone after one win, three draws and four defeats from their opening eight Premier League fixtures.
Leeds failed to win any of their first six, losing three and drawing three. On matchday seven, they edged past Watford at Elland Road to pick up their first win, with Diego Llorente scoring the only goal of the game. However, they suffered a 1-0 defeat to Southampton at St Mary’s last time out.
Leeds could do with the points, as Marcelo Bielsa’s boys are just three points above 18th spot. Victory on Saturday could lift them to as high as 14th. The home team are priced at 7/5 to get the win.
Wolverhampton Wanderers Preview – Can Wolves make it four wins on the spin?
Bruno Lage had a slow start to life at Molineux after taking over from Nuno Espirito Santo, who left for Tottenham Hotspur in the summer. Wolves started their Premier League season with four defeats from their opening five.
Wanderers have finally got things right in recent weeks, winning three on the spin. They have secured back-to-back victories over Southampton, Newcastle United and Aston Villa. Wolves were two goals down with ten minutes to go against Villa last weekend, but goals from Romain Saiss, Conor Coady and Ruben Neves gave them a stunning 3-2 win.
