Leeds and Newcastle love giving up high-danger chances, which is why the Over 2.5 gets Jason Ence's top billing.

Two sides yet to taste defeat in the Premier League hope to continue that run when Leeds United and Newcastle United face off at Elland Road on Monday afternoon.

My Leeds vs. Newcastle prediction explains why these two sides have been playing with fire by allowing a high number of dangerous attacks, and how that should lead to an exciting match.

Leeds vs Newcastle picks and predictions

My Leeds vs Newcastle top pick: Over 2.5 (54% probability)

I'm backing a high-scoring affair and playing this up to 57% at Kalshi.

Newcastle have managed an unbeaten start despite coming into Matchday 4 having faced 61 shots — the most of any Premier League team according to Opta.

At the other end, the Magpies have put only eight attempts on target, which is the fourth fewest in the competition through three matches.

However, they lead the league with 3.03 goals above expected. And given their opponent this weekend, that sort of clinical finishing could lead to an enjoyable day for fans of offense.

Leeds United sit just behind Newcastle in shots allowed, having conceded 54 so far. They've been fortunate to have allowed just two goals from 4.52 xG, with only Hull having a better goals below expected mark on defense.

Newcastle and Leeds are both allowing north of 30 penalty box touches per match to their opponents, the most behind only Crystal Palace and Chelsea. 

In a clash between two sides allowing far too many opportunities, I expect we'll see plenty of goals.

Leeds vs Newcastle same-game parlay (SGP)

Over 2.5 goals

Draw

Newcastle has enjoyed their trips to Elland Road of late, having claimed a result in each of their last three visits. The last two of those were draws, and four of the last six meetings between the two in the Premier League have ended all square.

I'm projecting a 2-2 final score, so I'll gladly back another draw between these sides as both clubs remain unbeaten in the Premier League.
