Liverpool to score over 2.5 goals
Liverpool have scored over 2.5 goals in three of their last five matches. These have come against Norwich City, Crystal Palace, and Brentford all of which are struggling for form just like Leeds United.
The Reds will show no mercy against the Whites now that Manchester City slipped up at the weekend and knowing goal difference might have a chance of deciding the title.
Over 3.5 goals in the match
If you want plenty of goals in your matches, look no further than games that involve Leeds. Eight of their last ten matches have gone over the 3.5 goals mark and only Norwich City (53) have conceded more goals than Leeds’ 50.
Over the full season, over 3.5 goals has occurred in Liverpool matches in a league high 14 out of 25 matches (56%).
Liverpool to win both halves
Liverpool throughout the season have managed to spread their goal scoring pretty evenly between the first and second halves with 31 first half goals scored compared to 33 second half goals.
With the rate that Leeds is currently shipping goals, we are confident Liverpool can outscore the Whites in both periods.

Preliminary review and match prediction for Liverpool vs Leeds United
With five league wins in a row, Liverpool have put behind them a bad Christmas period where they appeared to have all but lost the title race.
However, with Man City losing to Spurs on Saturday night, a win here for the Reds will put them just three points behind the leaders with both having played 26 matches.
In a title race that now has the possibility to go down to the wire, and with both sides posting similar goal differences, top scorers Liverpool will see this an ideal opportunity to boost their goal difference. Leeds have conceded three or more goals in six of their last nine league matches. Liverpool to score over 3.5 goals in the match is priced at 2.3.
Fifteenth placed Leeds are really struggling at the moment and out of the sides around them they arguably have the toughest run of fixtures coming up.
At the rate Leeds are conceding goals it would be no surprise if they picked up zero points in their next four matches at least. If this happens Leeds could find themselves in serious trouble with all of the sides below them showing improved form.
The positive taken from the Whites’ rivalry match against Manchester United was the manner of their comeback from 2-0 down to equalise. However, it really will take a gargantuan effort to keep the Merseysiders from breaching Leeds’ goal multiple times.
This of course is not impossible and if you believe Liverpool’s winning run will come to an end, the double chance bet of a draw or a Leeds win can be backed at 5.0.
Safe Bets
If only the first halves of football matches counted, Liverpool would be leading the league. They have gone into the break ahead in 15 out of 25 matches this season, including in eight out of 12 home matches. Liverpool to win the first half can be backed at 1.5.
Get Rich Quick
If you believe that all of the bets at the top of this article will come in, these can be put into a bet builder at a combined price of 3.0.
