Leeds vs Brighton Prediction & Match Preview

Steffen Schmidt - March 9, 2023

Leeds vs Brighton
English Premier League
Date: 11 March 2023, Saturday
Kick-off at 15:00 UK / 16:00 CET
Venue: Elland Road (Leeds).

Leeds will continue their relegation battle on Saturday afternoon when they host Brighton in the 27th round of the Premier League.

The Peacocks lost three of the previous four league games and are now level on points with red-zone Everton and just one point above the last-placed Southampton ad Bournemouth.

The team led by Spanish manager Javi Gracia did little to hurt Chelsea seven days ago at Stamford Bridge, losing 1-0 without creating much in the opponent’s half.

Leeds have generally been struggling for goals of late and the arrival of Gracia has not quite changed their fortunes much in this regard.

The Peacocks have failed to score more than once in the last five games in all competitions, a run that includes the 2-0 defeat to Fulham in the FA Cup R16 clash.

Brighton do not share similar woes whatsoever. They have just destroyed West Ham 4-0 at The American Express Community Stadium last weekend with goals from MacAllister, Veltman, Mitoma, and Welbeck.

The Seagulls have also kept their net untouched in the last two outings across competitions. They have allowed only two goals in the last five matches and they have lost just one of the last ten in all competitions.

Leeds vs Brighton Head-to-head

• On top of form, Brighton have tradition to back them up here since they lead the H2H tie by 7 wins going into the 34th encounter with Leeds.
• Brighton celebrated a narrow 1-0 win when these two teams locked horns in the first half of the season at The AMEX.
• None of the previous seven head to head clashes between these rivals produced three or more goals.

Leeds vs Brighton Prediction

Brighton will go into this in much higher spirits. They are even in contention for the top four finish being seven points shy of Tottenham in fourth place with three matches in hand on Spurs.

We will back Brighton’s win as the main betting option at the 1.95 odds, while you can also try with the Seagulls to keep a clean sheet at the odds of 2.75.

Leeds vs Brighton Betting Tips

• Brighton to win @ 1.95 (19/20)

• Brighton to keep a clean sheet @ 2.75 (7/4) odd.
