Leeds vs Everton Odds

Date: 18/08/25
Kick-off time: 20:00
Venue: Elland Road

The Leeds vs Everton preview sees the opening clash at Elland Road on Monday 18th August marks a momentous occasion for Leeds United, who return to the Premier League after a two-year absence. The Yorkshire side were rampant in the Championship, sealing promotion with 100 points and now set their sights on a solid top-flight campaign under Daniel Farke. Meanwhile, Everton, revitalised under the returning David Moyes, finished the previous season strongly and look to build on that momentum.

Leeds vs Everton Team News

Leeds vs Everton team news points to several changes and debut opportunities as both squads look to hit the ground running in the Premier League.

Leeds are without versatile midfielder Sam Greenwood due to a muscle injury. However, the Whites have strengthened well in the summer transfer window. Three defenders – Jaka Bijol, Sebastian Bornauw, and Gabriel Gudmundsson – have joined the club and could all feature in some capacity. Centre-forward Lukas Nmecha, signed from Wolfsburg, is another exciting addition and may well lead the line.

Everton welcome back experienced centre-back James Tarkowski, who is pushing to return from a thigh issue sustained late last season. However, midfielder Orel Mangala remains sidelined with a knee injury. Up front, new signing Thierno Barry is poised for his Premier League debut, alongside Carlos Alcaraz in midfield, as David Moyes looks to integrate fresh talent immediately.

Leeds vs Everton Betting Tips

Leeds vs Everton betting tips start with the hosts’ exceptional home record. Leeds scored at least twice in nine of their last ten Championship home matches, and overall, they netted 61 goals at Elland Road last season – the highest in the division. Daniel Farke’s side won 18 of their 23 home games and conceded just 12 goals. Backing Leeds to score over 1.5 goals is a well-supported angle.

Joël Piroe is a standout anytime goalscorer candidate. The Dutch striker bagged 19 Championship goals last season, including 11 in just 17 appearances at Elland Road. His clinical nature and understanding of his surroundings make him a serious threat to a transitioning Everton defence.

Everton’s away form was respectable, with six of their 11 league wins coming on the road. Their matches against Leeds have typically been tight, with the Merseyside club unbeaten in their last five league meetings against the Whites. However, with Leeds’ attacking intent and the atmosphere of a Premier League return, the Toffees could face a fierce challenge.

Leeds vs Everton Match Prediction

Our Leeds vs Everton prediction leans towards a Leeds victory, fuelled by their attacking home form and the energy surrounding their top-flight return. Daniel Farke’s team were imperious at Elland Road last season and have reinforced key areas of their squad.

While Everton ended the season well under Moyes and have history on their side in this fixture, Leeds’ hunger, bolstered by their offensive record and home advantage, gives them the upper hand. Expect a high-energy start from the hosts as they look to make a statement.

Match Prediction: Leeds to win. Bet with bet365.

Leeds vs Everton Correct Score Tips & Prediction

Leeds vs Everton score prediction analysis suggests a result with goals, particularly for the hosts. Leeds scored multiple goals in the majority of their home games last season, while Everton have conceded two or more goals in several recent league outings against top-half opposition.

Given the attacking threat of Joël Piroe and potential debut impact from Lukas Nmecha, paired with Everton’s inconsistency away to promoted teams, the most accurate prediction here is a narrow yet controlled win for Leeds.

Correct Score Prediction: Leeds 2-1 Everton. Bet with bet365.

Leeds vs Everton Over & Under Goals Betting Tips

The Leeds vs Everton Over/Under goals prediction strongly points towards the Over 2.5 goals market. Leeds alone could be responsible for a couple of goals given their home firepower. With Everton aiming to integrate new attacking talent and possessing counter-attacking ability through the likes of Barry and Alcaraz, the game has the ingredients for a lively scoreline.

Leeds’ last 10 home league games averaged over 3 goals per match, and given Everton’s attacking approach under Moyes during the tail end of last season, both teams finding the net seems probable.

Over/Under Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals. Bet with bet365.
