Leeds take on the visitors Crystal Palace in the round 30 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, April 9th at Elland Road (Leeds).
Leeds have been looking quite good lately. Yes, they lost to the Premier League leader Arsenal (1-4) at the Emirates, but in two out of their last three league games, they picked up six points, defeating Wolverhampton Wanderers away (4-2) and Nottingham Forest at home (2-1). Currently, Javier Garcia's men are in 13th place in the table. However, they cannot afford to relax because they are only two points away from the relegation zone. I think the Peacocks won't be relaxing either. It's unlikely they'll lose in this round, but they could definitely come out on top against their opponents.

Crystal Palace are Leeds' neighbor in the Premier League table, with one more point in their account. However, in their last five games, the Eagles suffered four defeats: 1-4 to Arsenal, and 0-1 to Manchester City, Brighton, and Aston Villa. Yes, they managed to secure a 2-1 win over Leicester after changing their head coach. But first of all, that match was played at home. And secondly, the Foxes are in terrible form right now.
In this match, I give preference to the hosts, and I think they could win. While a draw is still plausible, I don't think Leeds will lose. So, I'm going to place a bet on my favorite team's zero handicap. Crystal Palace has been terrible on the road this season, with only two wins in 14 games and eight losses. Meanwhile, in their last five home games, Leeds has only lost to Manchester United, with two wins and two draws. In their last five meetings, the Peacocks have only lost to the Eagles once, which was in the first round of this season. But that match was played away from home. In their last two head-to-head matches at home, Leeds won both games with scores of 1-0 and 2-0. My bet is the hosts' zero handicap.
Prediction for the match: Leeds to win with 0.0 handicap.
