Leeds host Liverpool in the latest round of Premier League fixtures in what is sure to be a breathless encounter between two sides renowned for their lung-busting attitudes to how football should be played.

Liverpool brought plenty of intensity to the table against Real Madrid during the midweek Champions League clashes, a return to a more familiar performance from Jurgen Klopp's swashbuckling Reds.

Their form appears to have turned a corner in recent weeks, or at least in part, and Liverpool will still have their eyes set on a top four finish that would represent a successful, albeit messy, season should they achieve it.

Leeds are enjoying a fine run of form after drawing with Chelsea and recording wins against Fulham, Sheffield United and, most impressively, Manchester City.

Stuart Dallas found the net twice, including in the final minute, to topple the league leaders at the Etihad last weekend following a remarkable performance from Marcelo Bielsa's men.

Our prediction: Leeds v Liverpool

Liverpool have gone 13 Premier League games without a draw, while just three of Leeds' league fixtures have ended in stalemate this season.

On paper, this one looks like it could be a close battle, but both teams have fallen into an 'all or nothing' pattern in 2020/21.

Leeds have been excellent in recent weeks, but without Liam Cooper marshalling their defence, they may be slightly more liable to leaking goals, and that could hand Liverpool an opportunity to capitalise.

Our prediction: Leeds 1-2 Liverpool (17/2 at bet365)
