Ascendant 16 Capricorn 58, Midheaven 24 Scorpio 59
Winners of their last three games, visitors Spurs are the favourites by the narrowest of margins. They are represented by Saturn (Lord of the 1st house) and Mars (Lord of the 10th house).
Hosts Leeds have Venus retrograde (Venus is Lord of the 4th house and dispositor of the Moon, Lord of the 7th house).
The Moon has a key role describing how the events of the match will unfold (which is why her dispositor steps in as substitute when she rules a key house cusp). Here she separates from a conjunction with Venus, the sole significator of underdogs Leeds.
The aspect is separating, so relates to the past. However, it is still within close orb, so may have some relevance to how Leeds approach the match; it suggests that they will play with determination and prove strong opposition.
The Moon next applies to sextile Jupiter (the dispositor of the Part of Fortune) and then sextiles the Part of Fortune itself. This second sextile is the most relevant, as it favours Spurs (as the favourites).
Jupiter, the dispositor of the Part of Fortune, also applies to a sextile with Fortuna. John Frawley in his book “Sports Astrology” only takes into account opposition and conjunction aspects between Fortuna and her dispositor, but it is nevertheless worth noting, as it may be of slight help to the favourites.
Another minor testimony which may be relevant is the conjunction of the antiscion of Pluto (at 26 Scorpio 49) with the Midheaven (24 Scorpio 59). The orb of aspect could be closer, but it may still be problematic for the favourites.
To sum up, favourites Spurs have a slight advantage in this contest, but Leeds will play well and have Pluto in their corner, so a draw remains possible.
