MANCHESTER CITY
A controversy-filled 1-0 win over Wolves in Saturday’s lunchtime kickoff helped Man City to their sixth win on the trot and maintain their miniscule cushion atop the standings, with Liverpool and Chelsea’s subsequent wins keeping the fire on their on their backsides burning, waiting to capitalize on any potential slip-up.
City’s forgotten man Raheem Sterling who has struggled to replicate his form from last season, scored his 100th Premier League goal from the spot after Moutinho was adjudged to have handled the ball in the box.
Like they have done in previous seasons, Guardiola’s charges have been terrific at the Etihad and he will push them to get the job done here.
LEEDS UNITED
Like the hosts, Leeds were also involved in yet another dramatic game against Chelsea at the Stamford Bridge, a game that almost degenerated to fisticuffs at fulltime. It took three penalties, two for Chelsea and one for them to finally settle the game which ended 3-2 in favor of the Blues.
The Whites held their own for extended periods and they certainly felt hard done by the result. However, with results at the bottom favoring them, they remained in 15th place, six points clear of the danger zone.
Biela’s boys have struggled on their travels this season and will be hard pressed to get a result in one of the toughest grounds to visit.

MAN CITY VS LEEDS PREDICTIONS
With the battle for the Premier League title starting to gather pace at this early juncture, we expect City to rev up from the get-go. They have dominated their home matches, winning 6 of their 8 home games including the last three straight. Leeds record on the road doesn’t make for pleasant reading either. With the exception of the 1-0 at the weekend, all the City home wins had them finding the back of the net in both halves. A repeat of that pays @ 1.54 at Cyberbet and we are rolling with it as our first England Premier League prediction here.
City’s defence has been the best in the league by a country mile. They have only conceded nine goals all season, with only three goals allowed at the Etihad. With Leeds missing key personnel including their top goalscorer Patrick Bamford who is nursing a hamstring injury, we feel it will a long shot to expect them to find the back of the net here. City will be gunning for their 8th clean sheet in the last 10 games and @ 1.68 with Cloudbet First Deposit Bonus, we feel there is terrific value in backing that option for our last call.
