Burton Albion vs Leeds United match preview, betting advice, and betting tips: The visitors are favourites in a tight match
Match Preview – 16.00 Kick-Off at Pirelli Stadium, Burton-upon-Trent
Things looked promising for Leeds United, but they have lost momentum, winning just once in their last five matches and losing 1-0 at home to Wolves on Monday. Leeds United dropped to 7th place as a result, and can't afford to slip again if they are to make the playoffs – they are now trailing Fulham on goal difference. Burton Albion achieved an absolutely crucial 2-0 win at Birmingham City on Monday, which means they are four points ahead of Blackburn in relegation battle and can breathe a bit more easily.

Burton Albion vs Leeds United Predictions
Burton Albion will be highly motivated, especially taking into account that their manager is Nigel Clough, son of the legendary Brian Clough who hated Leeds United more than any other team. However, Leeds United simply can't afford to drop points in this tight fixture and their whole season depends on it. Leeds United are a better team and it makes sense to use the lucrative odds on them to win at 2.30. In addition, both Burton Albion and Leeds United were mostly involved in low scoring fixtures during the last two months and the odds on under 2.5 goals are good at 1.72.
