Two of the most popular clubs in England meet on Sunday when Leeds United and Liverpool meet for a Premier League tie at Elland Road. The two sides are in wildly contrasting positions after three games apiece, with Liverpool, on seven points, unbeaten in fifth place while Leeds, two points, are winless in 15th position. Despite their lowly league status, Leeds have bounced back admirably from an opening-day trashing at the hands of Manchester United. They are unbeaten in three games in all competitions, one of those being a 3-0 win over Crewe in the League Cup. Bossed by highly-admired coach Marcelo Bielsa, Leeds play an expansive style of attacking football that can leave them vulnerable to counter-attacks from the better teams in the division. Liverpool would be regarded as one of the best teams in the country at transitioning from defence to attack and repeatedly breached the Leeds defence when they won 4-3 against them at Anfield last season. While the subsequent meeting ended level, the Reds are unbeaten in ten games against Leeds in all competitions.

Jurgen Klopp's side have started the season confidently, with their only dropped points thus far coming in a hard-fought draw with Champions League holders Chelsea. They have won seven of their last eight away Premier League fixtures and scored at least twice in the past four of those. Consequently, we believe that Liverpool are in the form to edge what should be a thrilling battle with their hosts. Back Liverpool to win and over 3.5 goals.
