The 2025-26 Premier League season enters match-day 32 with a promising encounter between Leeds United and Wolves at Elland Road.
Ayomide Oguntimehin provides the detailed prediction and betting tips for the April 18 matchup.
Leeds vs Wolves match preview
Leeds United enter this clash on the back of an impressive 2-1 win at 10-man Manchester United in their last outing, which further pushed them away from the relegation zone. The Whites are now up to 36 points on the league standings and are six points above the drop zone, with just six games left this season to retain their top-flight status.
They are also in the semifinals of the FA Cup and will face Chelsea later in the month, with a chance to face either Manchester City or Southampton in the final.

Wolves, meanwhile, have endured a disappointing campaign and look likely to suffer relegation to the EFL Championship at the end of the season. The West Midlands club have only managed three wins in the Premier League this season and have managed just 17 points all season, leaving them 15 points off safety with only six games left this season.
They have also managed the least tally of goals in the league with 24, while they have the second-worst defensive record among all 20 teams, with only Burnley (63) beating their tally of 58.
Best betting odds
