Leeds United need just five more points to equal a supercomputer prediction that would ensure Premier League survival. FiveThirtyEight’s supercomputer - which uses statistical information and detailed data analysis to calculate how the Premier League table will finish in May - thinks the Whites will finish on 38 points this season.
The Whites are currently on 33 points with six games of the season still to play. The prediction means Leeds would pick up one more win and two draws from games against Crystal Palace, Man City, Arsenal, Chelsea, Brighton and Brentford.
Burnley became the first side to crack under the pressure as they axed long serving boss Sean Dyche earlier this week. The Clarets are three points adrift from safety, having played a game more than Everton who are sat above them in the table, but one game less than Leeds United.
