Ladbrokes brings you an in-depth match preview for Leeds vs Manchester City including predictions, lineups and expert bet builder tips.

Man City needed a late winner to beat Leeds towards the end of last year, and despite Daniel Farke's side impressing with their performances this season, we're tipping Erling Haaland and co to walk away with all three points.

That's not all, as also included in our Leeds vs Man City bet builder is for Leeds to fail to score, despite finding the back of the net twice in the reverse fixture.

We're going with a match result selection for the first leg of our Leeds vs Man City bet builder, and it's for Pep Guardiola's side to pick up all three points.

Man City may have won the reverse fixture last year, but the game wasn't easy for the multi-time Premier League winners. City led 2-0, but after two Leeds goals in the second half, Phil Foden had to bail his side out with a late winner.

Regardless of how the match plays out, we expect the result to remain the same here, with Man City showing why they're second-favourites to win the Premier League title with another win.

Not only are we expecting Man City to win, but we also think this one is going to be a low-scoring affair, with Leeds failing to find the back of the net.

Our team of experts are tipping Leeds to attempt to frustrate Man City, but we think the visitors have enough to break down that low block and find the back of the net without conceding.

Man City are eager to apply the pressure on Arsenal ahead of their match with Chelsea the following day, so we're expecting a more professional and assured performance from them this weekend.

Erling Haaland remains the Premier League's top goalscorer, finding the back of the net 22 times in 27 league outings this season. However, it feels like he's in a bit of a goalscoring rut.

The majority of Haaland's goals came at the beginning of the season, with the big striker only scoring three goals in his ten Premier League matches in 2026. However, it's only a matter of time before he starts firing again.

No one will be more eager to see Haaland score than the Norwegian striker himself, and given he's been able to rest a bit more over the last few weeks, we're tipping him to find the back of the net against Leeds.

Haaland's goals may have dried up, but someone who is beginning to find the back of the net for Man City is Nico O'Reilly. The youngster has now registered ten goals and assists so far this season in all competitions for his club.

What's more impressive is the majority of those attacking returns have come in games where O'Reilly has been playing left-back, but recently Guardiola has moved the 20-year-old into a more advanced midfield role.

That's a move that is paying off too, with O'Reilly scoring three goals in his last two Premier League games, including a brace against Newcastle last weekend.

We aren't tipping him to find the back of the net this weekend, but instead the final leg of our Leeds vs Man City bet builder is for O'Reilly to register a shot on target.
