Welcome to our Manchester City vs Leeds United betting tips, prediction and odds analysis ahead of their Premier League clash at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday.
With a 14 point advantage over nearest rivals Manchester United, City are easing towards the Premier League title which will be their third in four seasons. 11th place Leeds United have had an impressive run in the Premier League this season after making their return to the top flight for the first time in 16 seasons ahead of this campaign.
Head To Head Stats
The teams last met in a league clash last October at Elland Road and the score was 1-1 with Rodrigo scoring for Leeds and Raheem Sterling scoring for City.
Prior to this season, the last time that the teams played each other was in a FA Cup clash back in February 2013. City won 4-0.
City have not beaten Leeds in a league clash since a 2-1 win back in January 2003.
Latest Manchester City results
City enter the gam on the back of a 2-0 Premier League win over Leicester City.
City enter the game having won their last five games in all competitions.
The last time that City tasted defeat was in a 2-0 loss to arch-rivals Manchester United early in March.
Latest Leeds United results
Leeds head into the game on the back of a 2-1 win over Sheffield United.
Leeds have won their last two consecutive league games (against Sheffield and Fulham).
The last time that Leeds tasted defeat was in a 2-0 defeat to West Ham in March.
Prediction
Leeds may fight in this game and give their all but they are simply up against a mightier side. Marcelo Bielsa’s side may have frustrated the Whites when they played them in October but they play a different side this time around, one which is more confident and lethal in front of goal.
I expect City to comfortably win this game 3-0.
Anytime Goal Scorers
Manchester City- Sergio Aguero. The news was recently announced that the Argentine will be leaving the Etihad Stadium at the end of this season following a successful ten year spell. He will be hungry to end on a good note and score as many goals as possible between now and the end of the season.
Leeds United- Patrick Bamford. Bamford has surprised many people this season, going on to score 14 goals in the league to date when many people did not think that he was good enough to play in the Premier League. He will be keen to add to his tally, especially against a team as mighty as City.
Our Odds And Tips In Detail
City are in excellent form and whilst they are coasting to the Premier League title, they will be keen to wrap it up mathematically as soon as possible. Leeds may give it their all but they are simply up against a better side which is one of the best in world football. I expect City to comfortably win this game 3-0.
