Leeds United hosts Hull City in the English EFL Cup 1/32 finals. The match will be played on Wednesday, September 16th at Elland Road (Leeds)
I really liked Leeds in the match against the champion. The Peacocks scored three goals and conceded from the penalty spot only in the 90th minute. If this mood is preserved, they will have a good chance of retaining a place in the Premier League at the end of the season. Bielsa extended his contract for one more season, and Valencia's forward Rodrigo joined the team. The hosts never adjusted to the opponent and played attacking football. After the match with Liverpool, it would be strange not to beat such an opponent as Hull City, especially since the Peacocks scored as many as six unanswered goals to the Tigers’ net in the last Championship.

Looking at such management and such a transfer policy, I have serious doubts that the Tigers will return to the Championship in a short time. Many players refuse to play for the club, and a mess in defense hasn’t gone anywhere. Hull lost all its advantage in a short period and deservedly relegated to League One. The season has already started, and the Tigers have beaten Gillingham. As for the last round of the League Cup, Hull beat Sunderland only in a penalty shootout. Currently, the Tigers look very weak and are unlikely to provide decent resistance to Leeds.
There is probably no need to bet on Leeds’ victory with a minus handicap. Surprisingly, Bielsa's squad can play this match in economy mode. Last season, the rivals played in the same league, but now one of them fights on equal terms with Liverpool and scores three goals, and the other continues to fall. The teams have completely different levels. Beyond that, Hull lost in eight of the last ten away matches in the Championship. Leeds has gained seven victories in eight home games. And all of them were shutouts. I think the Peacocks will continue their winning home streak.
Prediction for the match: Leeds to win
