Leeds vs Southampton Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in English Premier League on Saturday, 25 February 2023.
Leeds are on a long stretch of winless performances, that they slowly are dipping into the clutches of relegation. In fact, the last they registered a win in the PL was four months back.
Meanwhile, Southampton just recorded a 0-1 win on the road against Chelsea, and are high in confidence. They are eager to make use of this momentum.
Southampton are unbeaten in the past three encounters. The reverse fixture ended in a 2-2 draw, while the latest meeting at this venue ended in a 1-1 draw.
Do also note that four of the former eight overall h2h meetings had three or more goals.
Leeds last managed to deliver a win in the league four months back, and since August, they could register just two wins. On top of that, they are winless in the past three h2h clashes as well.
On the other hand, Southampton are fresh off their victory over two-time European champions Chelsea, and are determined to make full use of this encounter against the struggling Leeds. Moreover, they also won three of their former five road trips.
Likely, expect a win for Southampton this Saturday at the Elland Road.
The latest h2h clash was a four-goal thriller, and Leeds conceded two or more goals in six of their past seven appearances at home this season. Meanwhile, Southampton conceded two or more goals in four of the last six h2h clashes, and they have a single clean sheet on the road since October.
It appears that we are about to witness a high-scoring affair this Saturday.
As mentioned before, both teams are struggling with their defense, and clean sheets have come seldom for the two squads this whole season. In addition, previous h2h clashes also show this same trend – including the reverse fixture which ended 2-2.
Likely, anticipate both teams to score goals at the Elland Road.
Leeds are on a long winless run that goes back four months, and they also managed to deliver just two wins in the PL since August. On top of that they are on a three-game winless run in h2h clashes as well.
On the other hand, Southampton registered a 0-1 win on the road against Chelsea the last game week, and are determined to make use of this upcoming fixture. They also won three of the former five road trips, and have built up considerable momentum.
A win for Southampton would be a great pick, at an odd of 3.80.
Going on though, they have a single clean sheet on the road since October, and just two in the past 12-month period in such fixtures. In addition, they also let in two or more goals in four of the past six h2h meetings.
They might have the edge this weekend against Leeds, but a clean sheet would be asking too much of the squad.
As such, the Both Teams to Score wager would be a good pick at an odd of 1.83.
