Leeds vs Southampton Prediction, Odds, Betting Tips 25/2/2023

[Premier League Prediction] The relegation-threatened sides Leeds United and Southampton will play a football game at Elland Road on Saturday. The Whites had yet another slump, losing three of their previous four league games, but this encounter may be a turning point for Michael Skubala's club. While Cooper, Sinisterra, Forshaw, and Gray are not expected to make a full recovery in time to play the Saints, Rodrigo and Dallas are still in the recovery room. The sole goal of the game was scored by James Ward-Prowse for the visitors, who did well to surprise Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Leeds vs Southampton Prediction

On Saturday, the bottom two clubs in the Premier League square off as last-place Southampton travels to Leeds United. Saints and Leeds are both just one position and one point away from safety, so Saturday's game might be crucial in the fight against the drop. The Saints are currently experiencing a "new boss bounce" after interim manager Ruben Selles guided them to a 1-0 victory at Chelsea last weekend. The hosts, who have a new manager in place, will be hoping for a boost as Javi Gracia oversees his first game in command.

Leeds Form

Leeds United will look to avenge their Premier League defeat against Everton, which they suffered by a score of 1-0. Leeds United had a 50% possession percentage and eight shots on goal in the previous match, but none of them were successful. Six of Everton's 15 attempts on goal were on target. Everton scored through Séamus Coleman (64'). Leeds United has recently struggled to play many games without giving up a goal. In reality, we observe that Leeds United haven't played well defensively in 5 of their last 6 games, giving up 7 goals over that time.

Leeds Form

Southampton Form

Southampton is getting ready for this game after defeating Chelsea 0-1 in their most recent Premier League game. Southampton had 8 shots on goal, 5 of which were on target, and a 39% ball possession percentage in the previous game. Just James Ward-Prowse (45') managed a goal for Southampton. On the other hand, only 5 of Chelsea's 17 attempts at goal were successful.

The squad has given up in five of its previous six games, enabling its opponents to score nine goals overall. The figures don't lie. Southampton has to worry about strengthening their defense. To find out if this tendency will be continued in the following conference, we must wait. In their previous two league away games, Southampton had not defeated Leeds United.

Leeds vs Southampton H2H Stats

The most recent match between Leeds and Southampton took place on August 13, 2022. Despite the Peacocks' early advantage, which led them to become overconfident and take the game for granted, this match finished in a tie. As a result, the Saints' momentum helped them win the tie and the discount. Yet, if they had been careful with the scores, it may have been avoided. A fair outcome for an equal contest.

Leeds was able to design their own game and play it well since they controlled 58% of the possession. Southampton, though, managed to seize the home advantage and change the game in their favor despite only having 42% of the ball.

Southampton Double Chance

Based on the outcome at the final whistle, we made our first prediction for Leeds vs. Southampton. Southampton enters this match as the favorite after winning one, drawing twice, and defeating Leeds in their past three meetings. The Saints have won two of their previous five games overall, including a victory against Chelsea in their most recent away encounter, but Leeds have only been successful in winning one of their past six games.

Under 2.5 Goals

The overall number of goals scored in the match is the focus of our second Leeds vs. Southampton forecast. Given that neither team can truly afford to lose this match, we fully anticipate that the game will be incredibly close and stressful the whole time. Under 2.5 goals have been scored in three of the past four league games between the two teams, and in four of Leeds' last six league and cup contests.

Ward-Prowse to score

Last weekend, James Ward-Prowse scored the game-winning goal against Chelsea, and on Saturday against Leeds, he may repeat the feat. The midfielder, who managed a brace at Everton last month, has three goals in his previous four league outings and has scored all of the Saints' goals in their last two triumphs. Naturally, Southampton has won all four of its road games by one goal or less, with two of those wins coming by a 1-0 score. The correct result prediction is a 1-0 victory for the visitors since Leeds has gone five league games without scoring.
