The "Christmas Carnival" in the EPL is about to start, and the highlight of this round is Leeds United hosting last season's champion Manchester City. City's offense has been strong, winning 3-2 in the recent EFL Cup match with Liverpool, and Ennischalant's scoring momentum is still going strong, so this match is expected to be another good one. The recent imbalance between offense and defense of Leeds United has often led to a wave of goals in the first half, and the total number of goals scored in the first half of the last five league matches reached two or more, so it is expected to continue this trend.

Under the leadership of Argentinean manager Bielsa, Leeds United was known for its attacking soccer. Despite the change of manager, their style remains unchanged, and they still have the courage to attack against strong teams, such as beating Liverpool 2-1 on the road in October, as well as losing 3-4 against Tottenham Hotspur in the last round of league matches after leading by 3 times, which was a glorious defeat. Striker Lodigo is in hot form, scoring 5 goals in his last 4 EPL matches, and has the ability to compete with Man City.
"Blue Moon" is a golden pairing of amazing power.
Meanwhile, Man City has scored 40 goals in 14 EPL matches this season, which is the most powerful offense. After a month's rest since Ayn Rand was not involved in this year's World Cup, he was hungry and thirsty and broke Liverpool's door in the first 10 minutes of the last EFL Cup match. Midfielder Chiyun Dibny played well, contributing two assists. With the power of the "golden pair", it is expected to tear through the Liverpool defense quickly.
Manchester City is 8 points behind Arsenal at the top of the table and is in urgent need of catching up, and is expected to launch an onslaught at the start of the game. However, City's backline is not solid, and with center back Rubin Dyas out injured, it is doubtful if the defense can keep a clean sheet, so the possibility of a half-time over goal is not low.
