Some of betting predictions for Manchester United vs Leeds United match are:
Manchester United vs Leeds United Betting Tips
Safe Bets
• Manchester United have been in good goalscoring form, netting almost two goals a game this season. However they have been very weak defensively, conceding only fewer goals than they have scored in the league. Even Sheffield United who had five goals in their first twelve games, netted two goals against United midweek. Leeds United have scored as many goals as the Red Devils in the league therefore betting on both teams to score at odds of 1.57 (WilliamHill) is one of the safest bets of the match.
• Marcus Rashford was the man of the match midweek scoring two goals against Sheffield United and securing Manchester United’s victory. He has been terrific this year already scoring twelve goals this season therefore hence betting on him to be on the scoresheet at odds of 2.20 (betway) is a safe way to double your investment.
• Manchester United and Leeds both average around two goals scored and two goals conceded per game in the league this season and have unstable defences. Thus, we expect the match to a goalscoring fest for both teams and betting on more than 3.5 goals scored in the match at odds of 2.20 (betway) is a good bet.
Quick Rich
• Manchester United have conceded the first goal in four of their last six league games in the early stages of the match and come from behind to win the match. Patrick Bamford has nine goals this season and is one of the highest scorers in the league and therefore we suggest betting on him to score the first goal at odds of 7.00 (WilliamHill), which is one of the most popular bets.
• Leeds United have been efficient in attack earning 82 corners in thirteen league games this season averaging more than six corners per game and we expect them to be on the attack against a weak United defence too. Hence betting on them to get over two corners in each half at odds of 6.00 (WilliamHill) is another good quick rich bet.
Win/Lose/Draw
Though Manchester United have been impressive in the league winning four out of their last five games with the only draw against heavyweights Manchester City, we expect the match to be close as Leed’s United have been one of the toughest teams to beat this season, with Bielsa as their head coach. However United should win the game with Fernandes and Rashford in top form at odds of 1.70 (betway).
Bet During the Match
Anthony Martial got a brilliant goal against Sheffield United midweek and if he starts the match, betting on him to be on the scoresheet at odds of 2.37 (betway) gives good returns at minimal risk.
