Whilst Leeds United's Premier League status for 22/23 is not mathematically secure at this stage, the Whites have built up a commanding lead over 18th placed Burnley in recent weeks. A run of ten points in Leeds' last four games saw a buffer of nine points grow between the two sides before Burnley played one of their games-in-hand on Easter Sunday.
The Clarets drew against West Ham and reduced the gap by one point but with Leeds already on 33 points, they know they need wins and not draws to catch up. As such, Leeds won't be counting their chickens before they're hatched but the club will be making plans for another season in the Premier League, unless something remarkable happens in the final games.
One team that Leeds may need to prepare to face are Yorkshire rivals Huddersfield Town. Should the Terriers find themselves back in the Premier League, that will take on extra significance as they have been excellently managed by a former Leeds coach in Carlos Corberan.
