Pundits predictions as Leeds United set for close game with Southampton

Leeds United return after the two-week international break with another huge match as they host Southampton at Elland Road. The Whites will be looking to build on back-to-back victories against Norwich City and Wolves to earn a third successive win for the first time since last season.

Opponents Southampton, meanwhile, come into the fixture on the back of four defeats in a row in all competitions and will be hoping to ensure an end of season slump does not ensue. Due to the contrasting runs of form, FiveThirtyEight, a website that uses data to provide predictions on matches, believes Leeds are slight favourites with a 41% chance of winning.

With a 35% chance, though, Southampton are not too far behind, suggesting that a close game is likely at Elland Road. Pundits from across the media have also been giving their views on tonight’s fixture and LeedsLive have rounded them up for you.
