Tip and bets

TipLeeds win

1.83

Leeds United look very good in home matches. Few manage to impose resistance on the hosts at Elland Road. The hosts cannot afford to lose points now, because their rivals are pressing and hoping for a slip-up from Leeds. We believe that Daniel Farke men will not waver on their home field and will confidently take three points.

Our prediction is Leeds to win at 1.83

Will the prediction win?

Tiptotal under 2.5 goals

1.98

Bet on total

The hosts have conceded only one goal in the last three rounds, and they haven't conceded a goal at home for a long time, so there a high probability that they'll be able to keep a clean sheet this time too. At the same time, the difference in class with Middlesbrough isn't so big that we can talk about a big win, so it worth betting on the under total.

Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals at 1.98

Bet on total

Most likely, the teams will rely on defense, so you shouldn’t expect a lot of corners here.
