I've been laying them all season as I could never see why the market rated them a class above everyone else. I think they were close to Evens to begin with when I'd have made them about 10/3. Everything that has happened during the season has convinced me I was right to not see them as anything special at this level but there are still loads of punters who will jump all over any odds against offer.
The other day I was able to lay them @1.57 when they had lost 2 out of 3 and were 0-2 down in the game they didn't lose. Now today they have lost at home to Wigan when most of their rivals won and 1.90 is the most anyone is willing to offer.
IMO it is a coin flip as to whether they finish above West Brom, and there are 3 or 4 teams that might blow past the pair of them.

given difficult period last few weeks they are still there , tells me the challenge may not be as strong as folk think
every team has a wee run while others falter leeds are due theres soon and it should cement top 2 , as for winning league couldn't call it tbh , top 2 is the target |

backed brentford today at 10/1 form team and have strenghthend in jan
|

By:
Brentford could do it.
I am 3k green on Bristol City and wouldn't give up on them. Fulham are right there.... |
|
By:
It just seems wide open and if Leeds haven't put them away in 30 games I don't know how people so confident they will do it in another 16. It's not like they were clutch on the run in last year...

leeds next three games
Nottingham , Brentford and Bristol city |

By:
I like even more the prices for their next game, at Forrest.
Laid Leeds and backed Forrest. Crazy to have Leeds strong favourites to win there, will be massive game for both sides, but on Forrest's patch. I'd make it a 50/50 game at best for Leeds, so has to be wrong price? |

what price are leeds stu

Between about 2.08-2.2 if on here at moment
|
|
By:
aye , a bit low 2.2 on current form tbh
|
|
By:
Makes them significantly rated stronger than Forest, which doesn't really seem true on any formlines recent or overall.
|
|
By:
tend not to play win market in championship form always getting turned over but on current form leeds should be better odds
|
|
By:
tobe, you playing the forest/leeds game, and how would you price that one?
|
|
By:
they were the 3rd strongest team last season ...they finished above the Vanilla .
so by definition they were the top choice to come up this season and faves but i agree their price very short all season ..maybe folk don't have much faith in Brom and Fulham etc |
|
By:
Given recent seasons and form, why would anyone have faith in Leeds either....?
|
|
By:
Even having a song framed around their failings every year ffs!
|
|
By:
Exactly my take tobes - can't see why Leeds are positioned as such strong win favourites. Not on recent or overall form.
|
|
By:
maybe that's the answer there
even after as poor form as it gets currently leeds still only a point of top can only assume rest of chasers are just as poor form on the whole which isn't noticed as much as leeds form |

Both us and Leeds are proper bottlers
Battle of the bottle game which will end up with both of us being stretchered of the pitch  |

I have laid Leeds at the beginning of the season for the title and promotion to a modest sum but dearly hoping i am proved wrong.They have learned nothing from last season for example they totally outplayed Sheff Utd at home at the back end of last season and missed chance after chance then Sheff Utd score from there 1st great chance and win the game 1-0,fast forward to this season and they are dominating games but not scoring anywhere near enough goals from the chances they create,Bielsa only plays one way he has no other way he does not play with enough goalscorers in his team playing just the one totally inept Bamford who needs about 5 chances before he scores and what did he do when Bamford went on a 9 game run without a goal well nothing he kept playing him leaving Eddie Nketiah on the bench kicking his heels and going back to Arsenal as basically he was wasting his time at Leeds,the keeper is a total liability on crosses and any physical presence from the opposition will invariable see him flapping away at crosses as he cannot handle the physicality in the championship,this season is now faltering badly with recent losses at home to Sheff Wed and Wigan and away losses to Fulham and QPR with a grand total of 1 goal scored in those 4 particular games,recent away games to Forest and Brentford are coming up where we lost both away games last season quite comprehensively do not fill me with much hope but you never know Footballs a funny old game.

Leeds crush every team they play, some results are nothing like they deserve. Worthy favs.

They have more of the ball but you have to stick between those posts for it to mean anything |
|
By:
If Leeds would convert half the chances they make every game, they would be about 18 points clear, but they don't so just one of top spot, still worthy favs.
|

By:
Football is about goals and if you cannot score them you are not going to be doing very well as all the possession in the world will count for nothing
|
|
By:
Just shows how good Leeds are then, when only 1 point of lead
|
|
By:
Or how bad they have become blowing an 11 point gap from 3rd place,on current form its relegation material
|
|
By:
if I had to choose a team who I thought would win league from now, I would still take Leeds.
|
|
By:
Hope you are right but i very much doubt it, my tip is West Brom to come out on top after there similar disastrous run.
|
|
By:
Leeds have two hard away games on the trot, may even go further into pack, but come finish think the better team comes out top. West Brom watched a few times, don't look that good but get results.
|

By:
Laid some of Leeds at Forest 1.97 - win or lose that has to be a crazy price at Forest for this Leeds side....
|
|
By:
into 1.8s now
 |
|
By:
Results have gone against Leeds this afternoon so Leeds have to win at Forest which I think will happen,
so lots of early goals from Leeds, if not late win by forest |
|
By:
They might well win this match, but price is crazy away at this side...
|
|
By:
|
|
By:
Because leeds go out all attack and have 70% of the game every game but no goals, then the opposing side get a winner late on and leeds come away with nothing

Nice for an easy stake back at the very least now, or let it ride for those brave enough...
