Leeds – Fulham: two in-form sides ready to serve up a proper Premier League scrap upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/fr/thumb/3/3f/Logo_...

Saturday at Elland Road promises attacking football. Leeds need to bounce back after that cruel defeat at Newcastle. Fulham arrive on a run that’s turned their European push into something believable.

Leeds had been unbeaten in seven Premier League matches before collapsing in a wild game at St James’ Park. A brutal 4-3, conceded to the latest goal ever in the competition: Harvey Barnes in the 101st minute and 48 seconds. Harsh, but not the end of the world. Daniel Farke’s side sit 16th, eight points clear of West Ham, and their recent form proves they’ve got enough to stay up. The 3-1 FA Cup win over Derby added a bit of confidence, and Elland Road remains a fortress: only two home defeats this season, four matches unbeaten and, fun fact, both teams have scored in the last eight games played there.

Fulham keep surprising. The 3-1 win over Middlesbrough in the FA Cup stretched a tasty run: four games in a row where the Cottagers both score and concede, and above all show character. Harry Wilson is sizzling: a goal and an assist in the Cup, the winner against Chelsea before that, seven league goals already. Marco Silva can rely on a confident squad. Fulham have taken 14 of the last 18 points, sit ninth, just two off Brentford (5th) and four off Liverpool (4th). Europe isn’t a pipe dream anymore. It’s a target.
The numbers don’t lie: 12 straight matches with at least one goal, 10 Premier League games in a row finding the net, five wins running against promoted sides, and a 1-0 win over Leeds in the reverse fixture.

Likely line-ups

Leeds:
Perri ; Struijk, Rodon, Bijol ; Justin, Gruev, Ampadu, Stach, Gudmundsson ; Calvert-Lewin, Aaronson

First, a word on our tips

  • What we publish on Mathodds is analysis, nothing more. We offer an opinion, a snapshot of the moment, not a guarantee. Sport stays unpredictable. A red card, an injury, a freak goal… and the whole script flips.
  • Let’s be clear: there’s no bet without risk. Even when something looks “obvious”, it rarely is. And yes, that means you can lose. It will happen at some point.
  • Be sensible. Stake small, set a budget and stick to it. Don’t touch money you need to live. And don’t chase losses — it almost never ends well.
  • Betting should stay a game, not a job or a source of income. If it’s taking over, making you anxious or putting pressure on you, step back. If needed, speak to a specialist. That’s what they’re there for.
  • At the end of the day, responsibility is yours. Reading our content means accepting the risk exists and won’t disappear, even with the best analysis in the world.
  • Important reminder: betting is forbidden to minors and must comply with your country’s law. Gambling can spiral (money loss, family strain, addiction). Need Help? Call 1-800-GAMBLER. In the UK? Visit https://www.gambleaware.org/https://www.gambleaware.org/.

No commitment from us

Our picks aren’t a contract. They carry no legal weight. Plain and simple: you can’t use them to claim anything if a bet loses.

Info that changes

A prediction is based on what we know when we write it. Between then and kick-off a team sheet can change, a player gets hurt, the weather turns… and the analysis becomes outdated fast. We can’t be held responsible for that.

Your role

Before you bet, just check that gambling is legal where you live. If it isn’t, that’s on you, not us.

Responsible gambling first

We’ll say it again: play in moderation. If you can’t keep control, get help. We’re not responsible for compulsive or excessive use of the info published here.

Legal age

Mathodds’s content is for adults only. By browsing here you confirm you’re old enough by law to place bets.
