Current form
Leeds returned to the Premier League in order to gain a foothold and not go back to the Championship.

So, they opened the scoring with Aston Villa in the eighth minute, created enough more dangerous chances to score the second goal, but instead conceded two goals in the second half and lost 1-2. Ahead of the away game in Manchester. Leeds had an open series of three defeats with a total score of 1:7, and the rivals were far from the most formidable Burnley, Brighton and Nottingham Forest.

Manchester City have two defeats in a row, and the players certainly have plenty of motivation today. At the Etihad, Guardiola's team has been more than confident throughout the season, as evidenced by seven wins in nine official matches played. Leeds is fighting to the last in every game, but the lack of experience is affecting, and the peacocks are inferior to many rivals in class, they cannot compete at such a high level at a distance. In the last seven matches in the Premier League, the guests have won only one victory, far from everything is in order with their current form, and Daniel Farke's players are unlikely to be ready to do anything against the townspeople at the moment.
