Leeds have been in tremendous form lately but the sad truth is that they cannot challenge any of the top-7 spots. They will now look to finish the season on a strong note, looking for their 4th consecutive win when they will host West Brom on Sunday. West Brom have been fighting lately, at least offensively, but their defense has been the key factor to their relegation.

Leeds (17-15-5) were really good in the second half of their away match at Southampton, scoring two late goals for the final 2-0 win. They have now won 3 in a row, all by 2 goals or more, and have only lost to Brighton in their last 10 matches (6-1-3). Leeds are sitting at the 10th spot of the league table with 56 points, just 3 points behind the top-7 and the European spots. But they are much worse in all tie-breakers, so they cannot realistically hope for anything. They have a 7-6-5 record at home this season, scoring 25 and conceding 20 goals.

West Brom (5-21-11) are coming off a 3-1 home loss against West Ham, in a match where they actually took the lead. But they conceded two late goals and eventually lost their 3rd match in a row, while they are win-less in their last six (0-4-2). At least they scored in each of their last 5. West Brom have already been relegated, mostly due to their terrible defense that conceded 73 goals so far. They have been equally bad on the road (2-11-5), scoring 19 and conceding 34 goals in the process.

Leeds destroyed West Brom by a massive 5-0 on the road in the reverse fixture. Last season Leeds won by 1-0 at home before a 1-1 draw on the road. This looks like it will be a goal-fest between the two sides, with both offenses expected to score here. Taking the Over 3.25 Goals.
