Wolves vs Leeds: Top Two Tips

Premier League predictions for Saturday's big game at the bottom of the table between Wolves and Leeds. The hosts sit 4pts clear of their guests as things stand but a win this weekend would likely take Leeds out of the relegation zone. It's tight and tense at the bottom of the table and we're expecting a close and competitive 90-minutes at Molineux.

Both Teams to Score – No

Our first Wolves vs Leeds prediction regards the Both Teams to Score market. We're expecting a tight, tense and low-scoring 90-minutes between two sides battling to remain in the Premier League for another season. Only three of the last seven meetings between Wolves and Leeds have witnessed both teams finding the back of the net. Both teams have scored in just two of Wolves' and one of Leeds' last five matches in all competitions, which adds plenty of weight to our prediction.

Under 2.5 Goals

Our second Wolves vs Leeds prediction concerns the total goals scored during the 90-minutes. Under 2.5 goals have been scored in four of the last six head-to-heads between Wolves and Leeds, and we're expecting another low-scoring match this weekend. Four of Wolves' last five matches have witnessed fewer than three goals scored, while five of Leeds' last six fixtures have ended the same goal-shy way.

Wolves vs Leeds Lineups

Wolves

Wolves made the trip to high-flying Newcastle last weekend where despite giving a decent account of themselves, the club from the Midlands ended up narrowly losing the game 2-1. Newcastle took the lead in the 26th-minute and led 1-0 at the interval. Wolves managed to get back onto level terms in the 70th-minute through Hwang but the hosts responded well to being pegged back and scored a winner 11-minutes from time.

Sasa Kalajdzic, Chiquinho, Hugo Bueno and Diego Costa all look set to miss out this weekend through injury, while Boubacar Traore and Pablo Sarabia will face late fitness tests.

Predicted Lineup – Sá (GK), Dawson, Jonny, Semedo, Kilman, Moutinho, Lemina, Neves, Podence, Jiménez, A. Traoré

Leeds

Leeds played host to Brighton last time out for a game in which both teams gave as good as they got. Mac Allister opened the scoring for the visitors in the 33rd-minute but Bamford equalised 5-minutes before the break to get Leeds right back into the game. Brighton once again took the lead in the second forty-five but Leeds were able to respond again, this time Harrison equalised 12-minutes from time and the game ended all square.

Liam Cooper, Adam Forshaw and Stuart Dallas have been ruled out of the trip to Wolves this weekend due to injury.

Predicted Lineup – Meslier (GK), Ayling, Koch, Firpo, Wöber, Roca, Adams, Harrison, Aaronson, Bamford & Summerville

Player to Watch: Daniel Podence

Wolves' Portuguese midfielder has made a big impact this season, despite the club being involved in a relegation battle.

The 27-year-old who has never really been known for his goalscoring, top scores for the Midlands club with 5 league goals, alongside his fellow countryman Ruben Neves.

Podence has popped up with important goals, goals that have won games and earned points for Wolves this season and if the home side are to get anything out of this weekend's clash with Leeds then don't be surprised if Podence gets on the scoresheet or puts in a very good performance.
