Leeds United vs Newcastle United Prediction, Odds and Picks for Saturday, 08/30/25

Leeds United and Newcastle both suffered disappointing results in the last round of Premier League games and both teams will be looking to respond when they meet in the afternoon game on Saturday at Elland Road. Newcastle suffered a 3-2 defeat at home to Liverpool as they conceded a last-minute goal, having come agonizingly close to an incredible comeback from 2-0 down despite playing the entire 2nd half with 10 men. Leeds started the new season with a 1-0 win over Everton but were then thrashed 5-0 at Arsenal last weekend, before a much-changed Leeds team was eliminated by Sheffield Wednesday in the EFL Cup after a penalty shootout.

Leeds were excellent against Everton and thoroughly deserved the win; indeed they could have won by a bigger margin, but their defeat at Arsenal indicates they may struggle against the EPL’s better teams. Newcastle enjoyed a perfect record against the promoted sides last season with 6 wins in 6 games and they look well placed to pick up a first victory of the campaign at Elland Road on Saturday. The Magpies may have lost to Liverpool, but that performance was the kind of display that can galvanize a team going through a difficult period, and they can take out some of their frustrations on Leeds.
