Leeds vs Crystal Palace
English Premier League
Date: 9 April 2023, Sunday
Kick-off at 14:00 UK / 15:00 CET
Venue: Elland Road (Leeds).

Both Leeds and Crystal Palace celebrated important victories after comebacks in their most recent Premier League ties.

The two outfits will now lock horns in another six-pointer on Sunday afternoon as Crystal Palace travel to Elland Road for the Gameweek No 30 fixture against Leeds.

Leeds got off to a wrong-footed start to the mid-week’s clash against Nottingham Forest but they were quick to respond and bag two goals to shift things around even before the half-time break.

It was a dominant performance from Javi Gracia’s men who once again exploited their immense attacking talent to create numerous chances in front of the rivals’ goal.

The Peacocks have bagged nine goals in the last four league outings, netting at least twice in three of these along the way.

It will be very interesting to see how this in-form attack will cope with Roy Hodgson and his stern Crystal Palace defensive line.

Uncle Roy replaced Patrick Vieira on the bench during the international break and the Glaziers have immediately produced a much better performance.

Palace showed great character to come back from behind and see off direct relegation rivals Leicester eight days ago at Selhurst Park.

Football fans were shocked to see the Glaziers registering 31 attempts on the occasion, knowing Palace had been one of the most toothless teams in the league under Vieira.

Leeds vs Crystal Palace Head-to-head

• The home court advantage has played a big role in the history of this matchup. Leeds thus won 14, drew 2, and lost only 3 of the previous 19 clashes against the Glaziers at Elland Road.
• Crystal Palace picked up a 2-1 victory in the reverse fixture played in October last year at Selhurst Park.
• Just one of the last five head to head outings between the two rivals saw three or more goals scored.

Leeds vs Crystal Palace Prediction

Crystal Palace had been without a win in 13 consecutive games across competitions before the 2-1 victory over Leicester last weekend. Hodgson’s men showed a great attacking display on the occasion.

Knowing how attractive Leeds have been under Gracia of late, we just have to take the 1.90 odds offered for the Both Teams To Score bet here. As for the outcome, the value is with Crystal Palace not to lose at the 1.72 odds based on the performance they have shown eight days ago against the Foxes.
