Wolves v Leeds predictions

Wolves have won three of their last four Premier League home games - against West Ham, Liverpool and Tottenham and all with clean sheets - so it may well be worth trusting them to deliver against Leeds.

To do that punters will have to put a red line through last week's abject effort at Newcastle, where they lost 2-1 but were miles second-best.

Leeds at home, though, is a very different proposition and Julen Lopetegui's well-organised side are taken to nick the points.

It's true goals are hard to come by for the Old Gold – they are the joint-lowest scorers in the top division – but Leeds have also dried up under Javi Gracia.

They haven't won in their last three under the Spaniard and it was only a couple of moments of brilliance from Patrick Bamford and Jack Harrison which secured them a fortunate point against Brighton last weekend.

Key stat

Wolves have won three of their last four home games against Leeds
