Leeds United's best and worst-case weekend scenarios as Burnley battle could be all-but settled

Leeds United face arguably their biggest game since promotion to the Premier League as they host Brighton & Hove Albion on Sunday. The Whites currently sit in the bottom three, behind Burnley on goal difference, who also have a game in hand.

Jesse Marsch’s side will be looking to arrest their slump in form which sees them winless in each of their four matches – three of which they have lost. Their loss of form has come at the worst possible time, with both Burnley and Everton picking up points consistently over the last few weeks.

But this weekend is set to be another pivotal round of matches, as Leeds face a Brighton side with little to play for, though their recent run of form suggests they most certainly aren’t already on the beach. Burnley, meanwhile, make the trip to top-four chasing Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday, who will be buoyed by their 3-0 north London derby success over Arsenal.
