Leeds United vs Southampton Betting Tips

Inconsistent yet occasionally exhilarating Leeds will be looking to maintain their winning home form when they take on a Southampton side that has struggled badly since the turn of the year. 

Key Facts

• Southampton has failed to win each of their last 7 Premier League matches.
• Leeds have won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 league matches.
• Leeds have won 3 of their last 5 home league matches. They had failed to win any of the previous 5
• Southampton has failed to win any of their last 5 away league matches, losing each of the last 3. 
• Before those 3 losses, they had lost only 3 of their previous 19 away PL matches.
• Southampton has seen BTTS in 6 of their last 9 away PL matches.
• Leeds have seen BTTS in 4 of their last 6 PL matches.
• Both sides have seen over 2.5 goals scored in 4 of their last 6 PL matches.

Final Verdict

A tough match to call, Leeds certainly have the edge in form, and with Saints struggling badly with injuries and defensive issues, the hosts should be expected to claim another 3 points at Elland Road.

Goals can be expected with Leeds so adventurous in attack and Saints offering a decent counter-attacking threat, but ultimately, I expect a narrow home win. Final score 2:1.
