Leeds United and Crystal Palace face off on Tuesday in an English Premier League showdown at Elland Road. When these two teams faced off in February it was Leeds United that won 2-0.
Leeds United currently sits in 17th place in the standings having picked up 12 points. Leeds United has played to draws in two of the last three games and the offense has been an issue during that stretch. Over the last two games, Leeds United, has scored two goals total. In the last game against Brighton on Saturday the two teams played to a 0-0 draw. Leeds United had only 43 percent of the possession and only managed four shots on goal. Leeds United has scored 12 goals this season while their defense has given up 20 goals. Raphael Dias Belloli has been the best player for Leeds United scoring five goals.
On the other side of this matchup is Crystal Palace who sits in 11th place in the standings having picked up 16 points. Over the last three games, Crystal Palace has picked up four points total but they are coming off a loss. On Saturday, Crystal Palace faced off with Aston Villa, and they were defeated 2-1. That one goal for Crystal Palace came in the 95th minute, and it was a game they were mostly dominated in. Crystal Palace did have 64 percent of the possession, but they were still defeated. Crystal Palace has scored 19 goals while their defense is giving up 19 goals. Conor Gallagher has been the top player for Crystal Palace averaging four goals and three assists.
These are both offenses that have been inconsistent as of late, and goals are going to be hard to come by in this game. Look for both teams to struggle to get good scoring chances and this game will be very low scoring. Back the under to cash.
