Relegation-threatened Leeds fell to a fourth loss from their last five games in Sunday’s clash at Bournemouth which ended in a 4-1 defeat and the Whites now face three of the division’s top six in their final four games.

First up comes Saturday’s trip to league leaders and long-odds on title favourites City who are no bigger than 2-11 to beat Leeds who can be backed at an eye-watering 18-1 to leave the Etihad with all three points.

Even the draw is on offer at 8-1 and City’s Leeds-born striker phenomenon Haaland is an incredible 4-11 to score at any time, 7-4 to net first and only 5-1 to bag a hat-trick. That means the bookies think that the Norwegian is at least three times more likely to bag a treble than any sort of win for the Whites.

Even the possibility of a hat-trick for City’s second striker Julian Alvarez is rated more likely than a Leeds victory as Alvarez is 14s to bag a treble, 6-5 as any any time scorer and 23-5 to net first. City have the first 11 players in the first scorer market before Whites striker Rodrigo appears at 14s, followed by Patrick Bamford at 16s.

But the bookies don’t expect Leeds to score full stop and a 3-0 win for Guardiola’s side is joint favourite along with a 2-0 win at the head of the correct score market at 15-2. Leeds are 55-1 to nick a 1-0 victory and even a 1-1 draw is on offer at 16s.
