Leeds United will kick start a run of games against their Premier League relegation rivals that could prove season defining. The Whites take on Everton this weekend and a win would put them four points clear of the Toffees in the relegation zone.
Defeat to Sean Dyche's men would put them in serious trouble and hand the Blues a psychological advantage heading into latter part of the season. Defeat to Nottingham Forest saw the Reds move clear of Leeds, which would cost Jesse Marsch his job.
The departure of the American has seen Michael Skubula take the reins and there have been signs of progress from their two outings against Manchester United. The Leeds hierarchy have made the decision to give the Under-21s boss the upcoming fixtures, giving them time to appoint a permanent manager.
