Premier League: Mark Lawrenson makes prediction on Crystal Palace v Leeds United

Leeds United will be in action for their next Premier League clash against Crystal Palace on Saturday. The Whites will be looking for another successful game, following their 4 - 1 defeat to Leicester City last weekend. Ahead of the clash, Mark Lawrenson has stated his prediction. He believes Marcelo Bielsa's side will secure a 2 - 1 win over the rivals. "Crystal Palace have had the fewest shots of any team in the Premier League, with 57 in seven games, while only Liverpool have had more than Leeds with 96," he said. "They both have the same number of points though - 10 - so you can see that, while they have a different approach, they both have a style that is effective." "It will be interesting to see what Eagles boss Roy Hodgson does here - will he completely allow Leeds to take the game to his side and then look to pick them off? "That is what Palace did against Fulham last week but Leeds are a lot more dangerous."
