Leeds v West Brom prediction - Helder Costa can inspire Leeds to bounce back

Does two defeats and a draw in their last four matches constitute a wobble?

If so Leeds have a huge opportunity to steady the ship with a massive midweek match against the table-topping Baggies.

Victory could even see them replace the Midlanders at the summit. We asked our man on the inside at Elland Road, Joe Mewis , how he sees it going.

Leeds to win 3/4

Mateusz Klich anytime scorer 16/5

Win, lose or draw?

Before their late-season slip-up, Leeds were able to bounce back from disappointing results last year and I'll predict them to recover from their defeat at Charlton with a win in front of a packed Elland Road. The home win is 3/4 with thepools.com .

Who's a good bet for first scorer?

Helder Costa didn't dazzle in his first league start for Leeds at the weekend, but will likely get more space against the Baggies and is a decent bet to open the scoring. He's a big 9/2 to score first and if you fancy him to score at any time, that is 6/4 .

Who's on pens?

Mateusz Klich missed from the spot against Derby, but he's a big personality and can bounce back from it. He's 9/1 to do just that with the first goal and 16/5 to score at any time .

Will Leeds keep a clean sheet?

No. Leeds' set-piece vulnerability and West Brom's firepower will be enough to see the Baggies threaten the scoresheet. Both Teams To Score is a solid 4/6 .
