6th May 2023 – 16:00, Etihad Stadium, Manchester
Manchester City will host Leeds United in the Premier League 35th round on Saturday afternoon. The home side wants to continue leading the title race, while the visitors hope to get valuable points in their relegation battle.
Manchester City Preview & Team News
Manchester City, who won their previous game, will hope for a similar result following the 3-0 Premier League success over West Ham United. In that game, Manchester City managed 70% possession and 16 shots at goal, with seven on target. The Citizens continued their winning streak and returned to the top spot on the table. They are one point ahead of Arsenal but also have one game in hand. The defending champions are full of confidence, and they finally got into a position to lead the title race. Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola will be grateful not to have any fitness worries to speak of coming into this game owing to a fully healthy group available to choose from.
Leeds United Preview & Team News
Following on from being defeated in their last game at the hands of Bournemouth in the Premier League competition, Leeds United and their fans will hope to get a better result this time. In that game, Leeds United had 57% possession and 15 shots at goal, with 6 of them on target. The visitors have had many troubles lately since they stayed undefeated just once in the previous five rounds. That’s why Leeds United dropped to 17th place, and they have the same number of points as Nottm Forest, who is just below the red line. Leeds United boss Sam Allardyce has some players out of action. Luis Sinisterra (Ankle Injury) and Stuart Dallas (Femoral Fracture) will not be playing here.
Full-Time Winner Odds & Prediction
It’s hard to expect that in-trouble Leeds could pose a serious threat to Manchester City at this moment. Although the hosts have an important Champions League match ahead of them, we don’t think they will get complacent in this one. Therefore, Man City should celebrate another comfortable win at Etihad Stadium.
Goals Market Prediction
Both teams have been involved in high-scoring matches lately. Man City scored at least three goals at home in their last seven games at Etihad Stadium, while the BTTS Yes bet was successful in Leeds’ previous nine clashes. This time, we expect to see at least four goals in total.
