LEEDS UNITED VS MANCHESTER UNITED BETTING TIPS
SAFE BETS
The defensive departments of both sides have been on top form of late and would avoid any leakage of goals in the upcoming fixture which is to be played on Sunday in West Yorkshire. A low scoring affair is expected to be played out and thus betting on the total goals to be under 2.5 at odds of 2.37 (bet365) is one of the safest bets of the match.
Edinson Cavani has reclaimed his striking role in the United XI after a spell on the sidelines due to injury and the veteran forward looks in terrific form when through on goal. Thus betting on him to find the back of the net at odds of 2.15 (betway) is one of the safest bets of the match.
QUICK RICH
With Manchester United expected to go on the attacking forefront against forthcoming opponents, Leeds would seek to reply in a similar manner through the likes of Patrick Bamford and Tyler Roberts, meaning that the game could witness a host of corner kick situiations on either end of the pitch. Thus betting on the total corner count to equal 10 at odds of 7.50 (bet365) can give high returns at minimal risk.
WIN/LOSE/DRAW
Both sides harbour hopes of making it to Europe’s premier club compeitions, namely the Champions League and the Europa League. Whilte United hope to cement their top-four status, Leeds would be aiming to close the gap on the sixth-placed Tottenham Hotspurs. With either side not in a position drop any valuable points, a stalemate come Sunday is a good possibility at odds of 4.00 ( betway).
BET DURING THE MATCH
Patrick Bamford remains Leeds United’s sole influential presence up top on the pitch but the Englishman has failed to hit the ground running in front of the goal over his past few outings. With Bamford expected to return to his very best in the final third, betting on him to score at odds of 2.50 (bet365) is a good bet to make during the match.
