Fulham will play the rest of the season without high tournament motivation. Summer Residents crossed the 40 point mark, occupying a place at the equator in the table and can play more freely in the absence of outside pressure. They generate an average of 1.23xg per game and rank among the top 5 worst in the Premier League in terms of defense quality (xga = 1.67).
Recently, Bernardo Silva’s players have obvious problems with the form of the game. In the last meeting, they beat Everton (3:1) not without luck, and before that they lost 4 matches in a row with a total score of 3:9.
Leeds are in a fierce battle to keep their place in the elite division. After 31 rounds, he managed to gain two points above the relegation zone, but the results of recent matches are alarming. The white-and-reds lost in matches against Liverpool (1:6) and Crystal Palace (1:5), and a little earlier they lost 4 goals to the leading Arsenal (1:4).
After the arrival of Javier Gracia as head coach, the team clearly declined in quality in front of their goals. On average, under the guidance of the Spanish tactician, he allows 2.2 xg per match.
I think that after being hit in the face with 11 goals conceded, Leeds will try to rehabilitate themselves and play very carefully in front of their own goal so that the situation doesn’t happen again. I expect a close match with a minimum of moments.
