Leeds United vs Bristol City prediction and betting tips on April 28, 2025
Game Prediction
In the 45th round of the English Championship on April 28, 2025, Leeds United and Bristol City will play a match. The home side, who are celebrating their return to the Premier League, may not pose much resistance to the visitors, who need points to remain in the top six.
Our Prediction for Leeds United vs Bristol City
The team from Elland Road returned to the Championship in 2023 after a couple of years in the Premier League. They failed to bounce back straight away: finishing only third in the regular season and losing the playoff final to Southampton. Their opponent from Bristol finished that campaign mid-table, with 62 points in twelfth place.
This season, Liam Manning's side had motivation to fight until the final rounds. Thanks to a run of spring victories, they climbed into the top six, but suddenly lost 1-3 to Luton in the previous round. Daniel Farke, meanwhile, proved he was right to keep his job after the 2023 disappointment. This time his team maintained their lead. In the last round, they secured a crushing victory over Stoke City, which also confirmed their return to the Premier League.
The Championship leader is truly performing at their level. They score a lot (2.02 goals per game) and their defense is excellent (0.66 conceded on average). The visitors manage only 1.3 goals per match, although their defense is also decent—conceding an average of 1.11.
