Leeds United vs Everton Prediction and Betting Tips

Leeds United will get their first taste of Premier League action after a two-year gap when they host Everton at Elland Road on Monday night. Tottenham Hotspur had put put the final nail in Leeds' coffin on the final matchday of the 2022-23 Premier League season, by defeating them 4-1, and sent them packing to the Championship.

Leeds United are back in the English top-flight after winning the Championship title last season, leaving no stones unturned in their quest to regain Premier League status. Daniel Farke's men were thoroughly impressive last term, amassing 100 points overall, suffering a solitary loss in their last 28 league matches.

The Premier League is still a huge step up for freshly promoted sides. Newly promoted teams have all been relegated in the last two seasons and Leeds will do well to climb to safety by the end of the campaign.

Their opponents, Everton, are not navigating their finest hour either. The Toffees couldn't muster a win in pre-season and the pressure is on David Moyes and his men to produce a positive result in the opening gameweek.

But the Goodison Park faithful would be justified in feeling optimistic heading into the new season after an impressive run in the second half of last term.

Everton picked up 31 points from their last 18 league outings, finishing 13th in the table and if they can replicate that kind of form, their fans are in for a treat.

Leeds United vs Everton Prediction
