Leeds United vs Newcastle United. Prediction and Betting Tips for English Premier League (January 22, 2022).

Leeds United did well in the League Cup, where they reached the last 16. But Marcelo Bielsa's charges aren't very successful in the Premier League, where they have earned only 22 points from five victories and seven draws. They currently are occupying the 15th line in the standings.

The Peacocks chalked up maximum points in the last two rounds of the league. They celebrated success over Burnley (3:1) and West Ham (3:2). The defensive line of Leeds has been terrible this season - on average, they concede almost two goals per game. 

The hosts will be without Bamford, Phillips, Cooper, Shackleton, Forshaw, Firpo, Cresswell, and Greenwood. 

Newcastle have endured a woeful season. In both the League Cup and the FA Cup, they lost in the first matches. However, that might help them focus on the Premier League, where the Magpiesare second-to-last after 20 rounds of games. 

Eddie Howe's men managed only 12 points from one victory and nine draws. They have the worst defense in the league, having conceded over two goals per game on average. In the last two matches, Newcastle drew with Manchester United and Watford (both with the score of 1:1). 

Hayden, Wilson, Fernandez, and Clark have been sidelined through injuries.
