Our Three Predictions For Bristol City v Leeds United

  • Prediction 1 – Leeds United to Win 87/100
  • Prediction 2 – Both Teams to Score 3/4
  • Prediction 3 – Over 2.5 Goals Scored 87/100

First Prediction For Bristol City v Leeds United – Leeds United to Win 87/100

Leeds United have finally found their form, and this spells trouble for most Championship sides. Their recent performances briefly took them to the top of the league before Wednesday night’s results. Recent away trips have seen two draws against other promotion hopefuls, while two home wins have solidified their status as one of the in-form teams. Bristol will be stubborn, but with Leeds scoring at will, they may prove too much. Some of the best betting sites offer strong value on a Leeds win in this matchup.

Second Prediction For Bristol City v Leeds United – Both Teams to Score 3/4

This is a game that looks certain to provide goals. Bristol City have only been held goalless once in their last six games, and that was a draw at home against Sheffield Wednesday. Having scored a brace in the last two games they have at last found consistency in front of goal, and has helped their rise up the Championship table. Leeds United are now proving to be a real force and since a loss to Burnley in mid-September, have gone unbeaten in six and scored 12 goals along the way.

Third Prediction For Bristol City v Leeds United – Over 2.5 Goals Scored 87/100

With both sides in great form this should be a game that produces plenty of goal opportunities. Leeds United are averaging two goals a game over the last six outings, and have scored five in their last three away from home. Bristol City have scored four in their last two matches, and could continue their scoring form in this game, and will rise to the challenge that Leeds will bring.

Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results and Head To Head

Something has to give in this match as both teams are unbeaten in their last six games, with each protecting impressive streaks. Bristol City remain undefeated in their first five home games this season, notching two wins and three draws. Leeds United mirror this record on the road. For those interested in football predictions, this clash could be one to watch closely.

With Liam Manning still on personal leave of absence, Chris Hogg is the man taking charge of City, and has side performing well. 34 year old striker Nakhi Wells has bagged three goals, and Ross McCrorie is starting to shine in midfield. This has put The Robins in a good position to move forward, but this game is a real test as Leeds United are showing the form that preseason forecasters had them as promotions candidates. 

Daniel Farke will be pleased with the way he has his side performing. And recent results will have the rest of the league taking notice. Japanese midfielder Ao Tanaka has turned heads, and is proving to be the real engine of the side at the moment. Brenden Aaronson, Junior Firpo, and Wilfried Gnonto will be a threat going forward and have six goals between them so far. To prove they are real contenders Leeds will have to overcome a stubborn Bristol team.
