Man City have lost to Newcastle and Bayer Leverkusen in their last two games
Leeds have been beaten in four of their last five Premier League matches
Recommended bet: Man City to win and over 3.5 goals
Man City suffered their second consecutive defeat in midweek as Bayer Leverkusen dismantled the Citizens 2-0 at the Etihad in the Champions League.
That followed on from a poor 2-1 reverse against Newcastle United last weekend and Pep Guardiola will be looking for a reaction from his team against Leeds United.
Despite a bright start to the Premier League season, the Elland Road outfit have struggled in recent weeks.
Their only win since the end of September was a 2-1 victory against West Ham on October 24th and Daniel Farke's men are now on a run of three consecutive Premier League defeats.
A trip to face City is the last thing he or the club would have wanted right now.

Team news
Pep Guardiola will definitely be without Rodri due to a thigh problem. The Spaniard is expected to return at the start of December in what would be a welcome boost for the team.
The only other absentee is Mateo Kovacic and he will be out until March at the earliest.
After making 10 changes to his team in midweek, Guardiola will welcome back the likes of Erling Haaland, Ruben Dias and Phil Foden into the starting XI this Saturday.
Leeds have a few injury concerns. Anton Stach will be missing after the result of his concussion protocol, while Sebastiaan Bornauw missed training on Thursday and it might be a late fitness check to see whether he could be available.
Sean Longstaff suffered a calf injury during the previous match and is set to miss between four to six weeks.
The stats
City have an impressive record against their opponents this weekend. Indeed, the club have won the previous four matches by an aggregate score of 16-2, with one match finishing 7-0 to the Citizens.
Since the turn of the century Leeds have secured just four Premier League wins against City, although at one stage in the early noughties they were seen as the bigger team.
The home side have scored 39 goals in all competitions this season, which works out as just over two a game.
Leeds currently have the second-worst attacking record in the Premier League while only three sides have conceded more than their 22 goals.

Prediction
Given the attacking prowess available to Guardiola, there could be plenty of goals at the Etihad this Saturday afternoon.
Coming off the back of back-to-back loses, Guardiola's men will be hungry to demonstrate that those were merely blips.
As such, expect there to be plenty of goals in this clash as City look to reduce Arsenal's lead at the top of the table to four points.
