Saturday, December 8, starting at 15:00, Leeds will meet QPR in the 21st round of the world’s second-highest league, Championship.
Even though he has not been impressed lately, the host team has gathered points and is on the second place with a total of 39 points, just a long distance from Norwich leader. Bielsa’s formation comes after a 1-0 win over the Sheffield Utd field, this being the third consecutive no-goal win for Leeds. The hosts do not have an impressive defensive, but they have had some luck and have not received a goal. We note that two rounds of Reading missed a 11-meter shot in the 89th minute to 1-0 for Leeds.
He has scored at least two goals in the last 4 rounds.
On the other side, the host team alternated successive victories with defeats in turn. QPR is now 11 with a total of 28 points, 6 lengths of the top 5 and 7 top spots 3. It is worth noting that the offensive of the QPR has been impressive lately. Even if he only scored 5 points in the last four rounds, Steve McClaren scored at least two goals in each of these games.
The hosts have the first chance of winning, but certainly their opponent has the strength to jeopardize the Leeds gate, especially as Bielsa’s band did not impress in the defensive. Of note is the form of Spanish Pablo Hernandez, who scored 4 times in the last 5 games. 33-year-old Iberian feels very well in the right flank of Bielsa’s group and often appears to be finished.
PREDICTION: Both teams to score / YES @ 1.76
