PREVIEW
Bristol City sit 10th in the Championship after 7 games, 2 places ahead of visitors Leeds on goal difference. Bristol City have scored 15 goals so far, joint 2nd most in the league. They'll be hoping to improve their recent record against Leeds, who have beaten them the last 4 meetings.
Leeds have indeed scored a bunch and won the last 4 meetings, with 10 goals. They have been decent in recent games, winning in midweek against Premier League opposition. United beat Everton 2-1 and now have a place in the competition's 4th round.
Leeds will come here confident because they have now won 2 straight games, with the win over Everton following a win over Nottingham Forest, by the same score. They have conceded just 2 goals over their last 4 meetings against Bristol City, but that could change as they have now conceded 12 goals in 7 games, just as many as they have scored, and that is a big concern.
Goals seem to follow Bristol City around these days. They have scored 15 and conceded 13, and that 28 in 7 games is the most in the Championship this season, an average of 4 per game! Can you see where I'm going with this?
Jus looking at the last few games for Bristol, you will find 4 goals in their last match, 3 the one before and 8 the one before that. Their games have gone Over in all but 1 of the last 6, which is as far back as I like to look to establish current trends. Leeds have had all of their last 6 games in all competitions go Over, with totals ranging from 3 to 6.
BETTING VERDICT
Simple choice really. The game will be a good 'un and we should see goals aplenty. Let's bet on the Over and enjoy.
The Pick :
Over 2.5 goals
BEST BETTING TIP :
Take Over 2.5 goals to be scored @ 1.80 (Pinnacle)
