Africa Top Sports football expert has made prediction over the 2020-2021 Premier League 8th gameday match between Crystal Palace and Leeds this Saturday kicking off at 3pm GMT.
These two teams are not in the same dynamic. The Londoners have on average less number of success since the start of the season (57 in seven games). While the Yorkshires have the most (96). But, which is even a bit strange, with a diametrically opposed approach to the game, Palace and Leeds scored the same number of points. And they stand in the middle of the tournament table.
It will be convenient for the Hodgson team to play against a team like Leeds. The Eagles won two of their victories just as their opponents were playing too actively and moved forward without worrying about defense. – 3-1 away against Manchester United and 2-1 away against Fulham.
It is therefore important for Bielsa to have time to work on the mistakes. And not to repeat what happened in the match against Leicester on Monday (1-4) and a little earlier against Wolverhampton (0-1).
It would make sense to look at ball possession and shots rates here. But bookmakers are not in a hurry to offer them – miscalculation can seriously cost here. First of all, I will choose the options with the corners. And I will also bet that Leeds will not lose at least, despite the fact that the hosts will be able to distinguish themselves at least once. Yet they know how to counter-attack. And Leeds will barely be able to protect themselves from them for more than 90 minutes – I take X2 and both will score in 2.43 in 1xBet.
