Leeds United - Manchester City betting tips and odds

A home win is not something we would recommend betting on at the odds of 10.00 – but you’re probably aware of that already. It would take a miracle for Leeds United to pull off even a draw, let alone a win as underdogs.

Taking a 1.33 bet on an away game can often be risky but when it comes to Manchester City ahead of their trip to The Whites, this match can be a great addition to your betting slip.

The Whites are here after an exciting clash against Tottenham Hotspur in the previous round. The balance of power was heavily against Leeds, the visiting team, yet they managed to hold on to a lead in the first half. However, they lost all momentum in the second half, which ended in a narrow 4:3 defeat.

Widely expected to decimate their rivals in the last round at the odds of 1.16, Manchester City ended up doing exactly the opposite against Brentford. They maintained a stalemate in the first-half as hosts but the visitors broke the deadlock and ended up running away with three points in a 1:2 defeat.

With more than 5 conceded goals over their latest 3 fixtures, The Peacocks’s performance leaves something to be desired. That said, savvy punters could be able to exploit this – think BTTS or Over 5 Goals markets, for example.

With 15 points from 17 rounds played in the Premier League, the hosts are dangerously close to the dropping zone. Only three places separate them from the relegation strugglers and the Wednesday clash against The Citizens will be an important test for their top-tier credentials.

City seem well-poised to earn three easy points in their title push. Online bookies have them at 1.33 to win and make an important step forward in the chase behind the league leaders.

City dominated Leeds throughout the previous season. Not only did they come out on top on more than one occasion, but each victory was won with a notable goal difference. We can safely assume things won’t go vastly different this time around.

With no injuries reported on either side of the pitch, both coaches have their full rosters at their disposal. As such, the odds remain firmly in the visitors’ favour.

Sadly, we can’t get good value here and still stay cautious. An HT/FT bet for Draw/Away is the best option due to the visitor’s tendency to stumble in the first half.
