Leeds vs Bristol City Prediction, Betting Tips & Lineups: 5/2 Double at Elland Road
Promoted Leeds United take on promotion-chasing Bristol City in the Championship on Monday night, live on Sky Sports Main Event at Elland Road (8pm).
Leeds have already secured their return to the Premier League; now, the focus shifts to finishing the job in style by clinching the Championship title. Victory tonight would send Daniel Farke’s men back above Burnley and put them in pole position to lift the trophy on the final day.
Bristol City, currently fifth, have their own motivation as they aim to lock in a play-off spot - but they face a massive task against a Leeds side firing on all cylinders.
Leeds vs Bristol City Prediction
Leeds vs Bristol City Betting Tips
Leeds need no added incentive tonight. They come into this clash on a run of four straight wins, playing some of their best football of the season, and boasting an intimidating home record: 16 wins and three draws from their last 19 league games at Elland Road, including scoring 6+ goals twice in their last seven at home.
Leeds also have history firmly on their side. They’re unbeaten in their last 10 meetings with Bristol City, winning eight of the last nine at Elland Road - a venue that’s been a fortress all campaign.
While Leeds are priced short at 1/2 for the win, bet365’s 9/4 for Leeds to win and both teams to score looks a much more appealing angle, given that BTTS has landed in four of Leeds’s last seven and in 10 of Bristol City’s last 12.
Bristol City will likely put up a fight, but with the title in sight and momentum firmly behind them, Leeds should have too much quality and drive to be denied in Yorkshire tonight.
Joel Piroe can cap a memorable season by winning the Championship’s Golden Boot award. The Dutch striker sits on 19 goals, holding a two-goal lead over Norwich’s Borja Sainz and is three clear of Burnley’s Josh Brownhill.
Piroe heads into the final games full of confidence after his incredible four-goal haul in Leeds' 6-0 demolition of Stoke, a performance that fired him to the top of the scoring charts.
Tonight he will have the extra incentive of looking to prove a point following his surprise Sky Bet Championship Team of the Season snub.
I’ve paired a Piroe goal with at least one shot on target from Bristol City's Nahki Wells - who has found the net three times in his last seven appearances and will be looking to make his mark at Elland Road - to form a 5/2 Bet Builder with bet365.
