James Maddison among key players at risk of suspension for Leeds United's relegation run-in rivals

Leeds United will be looking for any advantage they can take during the Premier League run-in.

Whether through their own influence or not, the availability of the players in the squads of their rivals will play a key role in Leeds' chances of staying out of the bottom three come May. Their future is still in their hands, but the Whites know that the performances of the teams around them can make their battle a lot easier should they falter.

The Premier League suspension rules currently mean that players who have picked up 10 yellow cards by the end of the 32nd match are set to receive a two-match ban. With virtually all of the bottom nine - bar West Ham - having played 30 games each, there are some key players walking on a tightrope for the next two matches.
