What Trueform says for Swansea vs Leeds
Swansea and Leeds will both be more than happy with their Championship results so far and we reckon they are hard to split at Liberty Stadium.
United are two points better off following three straight wins in this division, but home advantage can help City to hold their own in Wales.
Punters can get 11/5 for these promotion hopefuls to share the spoils and that is our opening Swansea vs Leeds prediction.
A Look At Swansea City’s Betting Odds
Swansea followed up narrow wins over Sheffield United and Preston by battling hard for a goalless stalemate at Birmingham.
The Swans did need an inspired display from goalkeeper Erwin Mulder, though, as he pulled off a string of stops from Omar Bogle, Lukas Jutkiewicz and Jota.
Graham Potter admitted Birmingham “deserved to win the match” and commented: “We know we are at the start of something and will come across games which will challenge us.”
However, conceding just one goal in three matches shows City will be tough to beat as they seek a quick return to the Premier League.
Looking at the Swansea vs Leeds odds, we favour 4/5 for under 2.5 goals in this game.
A Look At Leeds United’s Betting Odds
Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa enjoyed a dream start with convincing victories over Stoke and Derby, but it has to be said they were less impressive in beating Rotherham 2-0 at Elland Road.
The visitors could have led at half-time if Jon Taylor’s shot had not rattled the inside of the left upright and keeper Bailey Peacock-Farrell had not produced a fine point-blank block to thwart Ryan Williams.
However, goals from Luke Ayling and leading scorer Kemar Roofe in the second period kept United’s early-season bandwagon rolling.
Bielsa stated: “Unlike our first two league games, this was more of a Championship game. Rotherham had three clear moments where they could have scored a goal, which was because of the mistakes we made.”
The Argentine may now settle for a steady draw and 23/4 for 1-1 completes our Swansea vs Leeds betting tips.
