Manchester City hosts Leeds United in round 17 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Tuesday, December 14th at Etihad Stadium (Manchester)
Manchester City is in great shape right now. In the last round, the team beat Wolverhampton Wanderers at home (1-0). It was the 6th consecutive victory in the English Premier League. Guardiola's charges now have 38 points, and this is enough to be in 1st place. The gap from the second-ranked Liverpool is minimal (only one point). The Citizens have the most reliable defense in the Premier League — only nine goals conceded. There are no problems with production either (33 goals scored). Only Liverpool and Chelsea scored more goals. Manchester City is the best team in England in terms of home results: six victories, one draw, and one defeat with a goal difference of 18-3. Seven out of eight games ended with “Both teams to score — no.”

In the last round, Leeds United ended a streak of three consecutive matches without defeats (two draws and one victory). The Peacocks lost 3-2 to Chelsea in London. As a result, Marcelo Bielsa's charges continue to be in a lower part of the standings, namely, on the 15th line. They have 16 points scored. The gap from the relegation zone is five points. Leeds has problems with production in the current season. In 16 matches, the Whites managed to score only 17 goals (25 conceded). The team shows very mediocre results on foreign pitches. It gained only one victory in eight away matches (three draws and four defeats). Six games ended with an exchange of goals scored.
In the last Premier League draw, Manchester City sensationally lost to Leeds at home (1-2). In the last six home games of Manchester City, more than three goals have never been recorded. On average, 2.6 goals are scored per match with the participation of Manchester City and Leeds. Guardiola's men are now in amazing shape. Yes, a very difficult victory was recorded in the last round, but this is quite normal because there is no point in playing at the limit of possibilities. In the near future, the Citizens will have to play a huge number of matches, and if possible, they are trying to save energy. In the last round, they scored one goal and kept a minimal advantage. I admit that we will see something similar in the upcoming match.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored
