Vinnie Jones' bold Leeds United prediction that would dent Man City's Premier League title hopes

Vinnie Jones believes Leeds United will come away with a point against Premier League leaders Manchester City. The Whites are unbeaten in their last five games and five points above the bottom three.

Jesse Marsch has done a stellar job an shoring up the Whites' back line but he knows they're in for a difficult game this weekend when Pep Guardiola's side roll into town. City thumped Marcelo Bielsa's Leeds 7-0 at the Etihad earlier this season and while Marsch insists there are no long-term scars left by the result, he acknowledges they need to be at their very best.

Former Leeds midfielder Jones believes Marsch's side can hold City at Elland Road. A result that would swing the title race in Liverpool's favour with the ex-Whites midfielder expecting Jurgen Klopp's side to win at Newcastle

Jones told EasyOdds: "Jesse Marsch has done a great job at Leeds. He’s keeping them up to their work and, now five points clear of relegation, there’s some breathing space - and don’t be surprised if they give Man City a game this weekend at Elland Road. Kalvin Phillips back in the fold is a huge plus."
