Command Analysis
Leeds United
EnglandCurrent form
Leeds came to the start of the season as one of the obvious contenders for a direct ticket to the Premier League - in terms of player selection, the Whites significantly outperformed all opponents. So far, Daniel Farke's team fully corresponds to this status and occupies the second place in the table with 69 points – the Sheffield United leader has one point more, but he has already played his match in the 33rd round, there is an opportunity to return to the first place today. In the last round, Leeds beat Watford 4-0 away, thus gaining their third victory in a row and the 20th of the season.
Disqualifications and injuries
Bamford is injured.
Interesting betting trends
- Leeds have won their last three matches
- Leeds have not conceded in the last six league matches.
Approximate line–up: Melier - Bogle, Rodon, Ampadu, Firpo – Tanaka, Gruev, James, Aronsoon, Solomon – Piru.
Sunderland
EnglandCurrent form
Before the start of the season, Sunderland was also considered one of the contenders for a direct ticket to the Premier League, but it was not among the main favorites of the championship. So far, the Black Cats are looking quite decent and currently occupy the fourth place in the table with 62 points, seven points behind their current opponent – a defeat will practically nullify the chances of fighting for the second place. In the last round, Sunderland beat Luton 2-0, thus securing their 17th victory of the season.
Disqualifications and injuries
Alase, Brown and Dunns are injured.

- Sunderland have not lost in their last nine matches, with five wins and four draws.

2.49Tip and bets
Leeds will definitely strive to take all three points today and return to the top spot in the table – the Whites are in great shape, scoring a lot and regularly, and the Sunderland defense is facing a very difficult test. It is unlikely that the "black cats" have a real chance to win back to zero today, but at the same time, the guests will obviously take risks, defeat will throw them 10 points away from the direct qualification zone for the Premier League and such a handicap will be a verdict, an exchange of goals will certainly take place.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. The forecast is that both will score. This bet is offered with odds of 1.99
Betting on the outcome
Leeds is definitely the favorite of the match – both in terms of the quality of football and the selection of players, the Whites are the strongest in the championship. The hosts are quite capable of justifying this status – although Sunderland is in good shape, the guests have enough weaknesses, and the Black Cats are significantly inferior in class. Sunderland is very vulnerable in away matches, and it makes sense to give preference to the hosts in such a situation, as Leeds are objectively stronger today.
The bet is an Asian handicap (-1) on Leeds. This bet is offered for 1.97
Betting on corners
Leeds is the favorite and will probably play number one – the hosts should win confidently on the corners.
The bet is an Asian handicap (-3) on corner shots at Leeds. This bet is offered for 1.85
