Does last week’s promise finally yield three points?
As promising and encouraging as last week was in that low-expectation double-header under a caretaker boss against one of the Premier League’s form sides, Leeds United really do need to win today. The Whites are running out of road and excuses for this dire winless run.
Two wins in 19 league matches and no wins in the last nine is a horrendous run which has, quite understandably, seen them plunge down the league table. A win at Goodison Park takes them four clear of Everton and then frames next weekend’s clash with Southampton in an entirely different way.
