LWDDDL

Leeds United will be hoping for a better result after the 0-1 Premier League loss in their previous game against Manchester City.

In that game, Leeds United managed 33% possession and 14 attempts on goal with 2 of them on target. For their opponents, Manchester City got 14 attempts on goal with 5 of them on target. Antoine Semenyo (45') scored for Manchester City.

It’s been seldom in recent times where Leeds United have shown defensive steel. In fact, Leeds United have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 games, shipping 9 goals in the process.

Ahead of this meeting, Leeds United haven't lost in the league to Sunderland in their last 4 matches.

Sunderland

Previously, Sunderland drew 1-1 in the Premier League tie with Bournemouth.

In that match, Sunderland managed 38% possession and 8 attempts on goal with 4 of them on target. The only player to score for Sunderland was Mayenda (18'). On the other side, Bournemouth got 21 shots on goal with 5 on target. Evanilson (63') scored for Bournemouth.

In the course of their six most recent matches, Régis Le Bris's Sunderland have seen their efforts on goal rewarded a total of 6 times, yielding them the goals scored per game average of 1.

Going into this game, the form guide shows that Sunderland:

• are winless against Leeds United when they've played them away from home in the last 3 league games.
• have not won away from home in their last 9 matches in the league. A poor run.

📋 Team News: Leeds United

We think that The Whites will possibly line up in a 3-4-2-1 formation this time, beginning the first half with Karl Darlow, Joe Rodon, Pascal Struijk, James Justin, Jayden Bogle, Ilia Gruev, Ethan Ampadu, Gabriel Gudmundsson, Anton Stach, Brenden Aaronson and D. Calvert-Lewin.

ℹ️ Team News: Sunderland

It’s our belief that The Black Cats might make use of a 4-2-3-1 lineup by sending out Robin Roefs, Lutsharel Geertruida, Daniel Ballard, Omar Alderete, Trai Hume, Noah Sadiki, Granit Xhaka, Bertrand Traore, Habib Diarra, Enzo Le Fee and Eliezer Mayenda.

🧠 Prediction

Sunderland should have enough to put a goal past this Leeds United lineup, although that isn’t expected to be enough to avoid defeat.

We’re expecting both teams to score in a 2-1 winning margin for Leeds United by the time that the referee blows the final whistle.
