An interesting game on Saturday afternoon in the middle layers of the Premier League, the Leeds welcomes Aston Villa.
Bielsa's team returned to winning ways with an emphatic 3-0 win over Southampton in the middle of the week, thus ending the mini series of two defeats. Of course, both of them came away from home, with difficult opponents (Arsenal, Wolves), in London it was bad, not so much in Wolverhampton. With the "saints" she met hard, as she stuck against the unexpected defensive opponent, in the second a quick goal untied her legs and gave her control, with two more goals coming in the last quarter. Her philosophy does not change, she has a goal ratio of 43-43 in 25 matches, which is the largest sum in the category. He does not have an obvious goal, although with a little luck he may claim a European ticket, after many years. Absences are important midfielders Clich, Phillips and midfielder Rodrigo.
Continuation in the mediocre appearances for the "villagers", the 1-2 from Leicester inside is considered fair. Again with a lack of vitality and ideas in the attack, in the first half they already lost 0-2. She showed some effort in the second but without a flame, even the quick reduction did not give her the necessary impetus. 2-1-3 her record in the last six, the "short" roster does not help in this year's exhausting program, at the same time she will have a very significant absence since will miss the star and best player of Grillis (6 goals, 10 assists) due to injury.
Leeds are in a slightly better situation, as they will once again play their game without discounts. We expect a defensive set-up from Smith, especially in the absence of Grillis, his team will lose creation and will try to close down and take advantage of the spaces that will exist. But it is not convincing that she can double in on Eland Road with her image recently, like that we will turn to the ace in a draw no bet at 1,65 of Stoiximan.
