Leeds United vs Liverpool Preview: Wirtz Finds His Form, Liverpool Fearless Away at Leeds

At 01:30 on December 7th (Beijing time), in the 15th round of the Premier League, Leeds United will host Liverpool.

Key points for the Leeds United vs Liverpool match are as follows:

First:Team situationsAfter 14 Premier League matches, Leeds United have 4 wins, 2 draws, and 8 losses, accumulating 14 points and ranking 17th, just 2 points clear of relegation; Liverpool have 7 wins, 1 draw, and 6 losses, with 22 points in 9th place, narrowly missing out on Champions League qualification by 1 point. In the last round, Leeds shocked Chelsea 3-1 at home, ending a four-game losing streak; Liverpool drew 1-1 at home against Sunderland, with Wirtz causing an own goal and Chiesa actively tracking back to prevent a last-minute defeat. Liverpool have only won twice in their last nine games, showing poor form.

Second:Wirtz Hits His Stride, Liverpool Unafraid of Leeds AwayWithout Salah starting, Wirtz shines as a high-quality player whose form is steadily improving and is getting closer to scoring his first Premier League goal. In terms of strength, Liverpool are far superior to Leeds. Klopp has already taken Salah out of the starting lineup, which might actually enhance Liverpool’s attacking and defensive balance. Leeds will miss striker Bamford, which will weaken their offensive threat. Liverpool’s new signings are eager to make an impact; Isak is hungry for goals, and Wirtz playing as an attacking midfielder is ideal. As long as the wingers push forward, Liverpool are expected to secure a win away against the promoted Leeds United.

In the last six encounters, Leeds have 1 win, 1 draw, and 4 losses, putting them at a disadvantage.

Injury and suspension updates: Leeds haveBamford, Eze, James, and Linstow; Liverpool havePhillips, Bradley, Leoni, and Gomez (doubtful).
