Leeds United will attempt to keep their push for survival going strong when they host Liverpool in the Premier League on Monday.
Leeds Form GuideWhile they may have shown improvements since the turn of the year, there are still plenty of questions that surround this Leeds United team and how far they can go. Ensuring they avoid relegation is obviously the aim of the game but beyond that, they need to think about what kind of strategy they want to take forward given the competitive nature of the Premier League.
After losing 1-0 to Chelsea and picking up an admirable 2-2 draw at home to Brighton, Leeds’ inconsistency continued with a win over Wolves followed by a loss to Arsenal. They proceeded to beat Nottingham Forest at Elland Road before a shocking 5-1 defeat courtesy of Crystal Palace.
Liverpool Form GuideThis season has been one to forget for Liverpool Football Club. The only real salvation they have is trying to finish in the top four, and that feels like a distant possibility right now. The real priority for Jurgen Klopp will be looking ahead to what he can change in the summer transfer window because he can’t afford to have a campaign that’s been as subpar as this one.
Ever since humbling Manchester United in a 7-0 battering, Liverpool haven’t won a game. They lost three straight to Bournemouth, Real Madrid and Manchester City before picking up a point against both Chelsea and Arsenal.
Latest Team NewsDallas, Adams and Wober are all injured for Leeds but aside from that, the home side have no other concerns.
Ramsay, Keita and Bajcetic are out through injury with Diaz hoping to finally make his return from injury.
Match PredictionLeeds are going to really push the tempo here and play with the kind of intensity that suits their current position in the table. Alas, while they’ll almost certainly have success, we feel like they’ll leave one too many gaps at the back for the visitors to exploit - which is why we’re backing a Liverpool win.
