Everton vs Leeds United: match statistics
Everton has a clear advantage as the host of this meeting. Their home record (36% wins, only 36% losses) is decisively better than the fatal away form of Leeds United, who have won just 9% of away matches and lost as many as 64% of encounters. Leeds concedes an average of 2.18 goals per away match with a goal difference of -13, demonstrating serious defensive problems. Everton holds an advantage in expected goals (xG 1.46 vs 1.24 Leeds), better shooting efficiency in home matches, and a higher percentage of clean sheets (36% vs 9%). The recent form of both teams is similar (1.6 PPG each), but Leeds struggles with scoring goals away (45% of matches without a goal). Taking all statistics into account, Everton should exploit the home pitch advantage and the visitors' defensive weaknesses, although a draw cannot be ruled out due to the small quality difference between the teams.
