Crystal Palace vs Leeds: match preview
Crystal Palace have been far from consistent during this Premier League campaign. The club has already lost several key players, and after the season they will also part ways with their head coach. In the previous round they defeated Tottenham 3–1 and currently sit in the lower half of the standings. After 29 matches, the team has collected 38 points and occupies 13th place in the table. They have lost only once in their last six games, so their form is fairly solid.
Leeds are positioned slightly lower in the Premier League table. The club returned to England’s top flight and once again finds itself battling for survival. After 29 matches, the side has collected 31 points and currently sits in 15th place. The gap to the relegation zone stands at three points. Over their last four games they have won only once, so the battle is clearly far from over and everything still lies ahead. They need to collect points more consistently to prevent their rivals from closing the gap.
Probable line-ups
- Crystal Palace: Henderson; Canvot, Lacroix, Riad; Johnson, Wharton, Hughes, Sosa; Sarr, Pino; Strand Larsen
- Leeds: Darlow; Justin, Rodon, Struijk, Gudmundsson; Bogle, Stach, Ampadu, Longstaff, Aaronson; Calvert-Lewin
Prediction
An extremely important clash for both sides, especially for Leeds. I expect both teams to attack and push for victory. My suggested bet for this match is that both teams will score.
