Leeds v Fulham Betting Tips
There have been some very interesting games between these two clubs over the past few seasons in the Championship. Leeds have collected four points from their opening two games of the new season and that was a thrilling 3-2 win posted at Bolton on the opening weekend, where they looked impressive, before earning a point in a 1-1 draw against Preston on the weekend. Under 2.5 goals is trading at a price of even money with bookmaker bet365 and that could have some value because of the last four meetings have gone under the goal line. In fact, six of the last seven have been under the goal line. Each of the last four games between Leeds and Fulham have ended in a 1-1 draw. In the bet365 correct score market, the 1-1 draw is a good price of 11/2. Well worth a flutter on that one. Kalvin Phillips netted a brace against Bolton on the opening weekend so could be worth watching in the goalscorer markets on Tuesday. Leeds have gone W2 D2 L1 in their last five home games against Fulham.
So there has absolutely nothing to split these two over the last two season and you have Leeds in decent form here in the opening stages of the season, going up against Fulham, who have drawn their opening two fixtures. So you are looking at a tight old game at Elland Road. The Cottagers have had a couple of tricky games so far as they were held by Norwich on the opening weekend and then they earned a 1-1 draw on the road at Reading on the weekend. Of course, they would have expected more from them but they have shown resilience at least in not losing so far. Fulham were scoring for fun in last season’s Championship, and out on the road they went W12 D6 L5 on their travels and they are unbeaten in their last four away games in the Championship now (W3 D1) in the carry over from the back end of last season. Fulham have scored in each of their last four visits to Elland Road and both teams to score at Coral is a price of 4/7.
