THE LOWDOWN

LEEDS UTD

  • A narrow one-goal defeat for Leeds Utd away at Chelsea leaves them still in a perilous league position with just goal difference keeping them above Everton and outside of the relegation places.
  • Stuart Dallas and Adam Forshaw are both missing for Leeds, who also have a number of players doubtful, including forwards Patrick Bamford and Rodrigo.

BRIGHTON

  • Brighton’s comprehensive 4-0 beating of West Ham last time out only further deepens the belief that this Seagulls side is capable of qualifying for Europe next season through league position.
  • Both Levi Colwill and Tariq Lamptey are doubtful for the trip to Elland Road, however winger Solly March has shaken off an ankle knock and is expected to start

THE PREDICTION

Leeds Utd know the importance of their games at Elland Road heading into the season’s run-in, but they cannot afford to get caught out pushing too many bodies forward at once against this ruthless Brighton unit. Over the course of their last five games in all competitions, the Seagulls have conceded only two goals, which puts into perspective the difficulty of Leeds’ task. But home advantage cannot be underestimated, especially at a ground as loud as Elland Road. Whichever way this match goes, it is likely to prove a low-scoring affair, so consider backing under 2.5 goals scored.

TIP: UNDER 2.5 GOALS
