Leeds vs Cardiff Prediction & Betting Tips (6 August)

After the passage of Bielsa and good results, Leeds had a very difficult season last year which ended in relegation to the 19th Championship. The club's objective is to quickly find the elite but the competition will be, as every year, very fierce.

In order to prepare for this new season as well as possible, The Whites took part in various friendly matches including two defeats against Manchester United 2-0 then Monaco 0-2 before reviving against Nottingham Forrest 0-2 then a short success during the last preparation match against the Scots of Hearts 0-1.

Obviously following his descent to the lower level, many players jumped ship. This is the case of the Spanish international striker, Rodrigo (13 goals last season) who flew to Al-Rayyan (Qatar) while the Dutchman Rasmus Kristensen (3 goals) returned to AS Roma (end of loan), same case for Brenden Aaronson (3 assists last year, Union Berlin), Marc Roca (return from loan to Bétis) or even Weston McKennie (return to Juventus). Author of 16 appearances last year in PL, the Austrian, Wober was loaned to Germany on the side of Borrüssia Monchengladbach. On the other hand, some have remained faithful to the image of Jack Harrison (5 achievements, 7 assists last year) who despite his absences during the friendly could take part in the start of the season. Note the presence of the Colombian, Luis Sinisterra (5 goals in 19 appearances last season), Patrick Bamford (4 pawns, 3 cakes last season) or the Dutch international hopeful Summerville (4 goals, 2 caviars last year in PL). Opposite, top scorer in the squad last season, Sory Kaba (8 goals in 17 apps last year) returned to Midtyjlland (Denmark).

Same story for Jaden Philogene-Bidace (4 goals last year) who returned to Aston Villa (end of loan) without forgetting the free departure of Mark Harris (3 goals in 35 appearances) to Oxford (English D3). Let's add the recent departure on loan from Davies (10 appearances last season) and the arrival on loan of Bowler from Nottingham as well as that of Grant (3 goals last year at West Brom). Passed by Nice for a season in the sun, Aaron Ramsey left the Aiglons freely and therefore joined the club freely. Following Reading's relegation to D3, the Ivorian striker, Meite (4 goals, 3 assists last year) joined freely, like the Greek defender, Goutas (ex-Sivasspor, Turkey). We should find Callum Robinson (5 goals, 6 assists last season) and his Irish compatriot, Callum O'Dowda (3 goals, 3 assists).
