Leeds United's perilous Premier League run in compared with a miracle needed

Leeds United have three games left to save their season with their Premier League status hanging in the balance. It was always going to be a tough ask for Sam Allardyce to get a tune out of a Whites side void of any confidence, but last weekend's results did them no favours.

Both Everton and Nottingham Forest won to leapfrog Leeds and move out of the relegation zone, with Leicester City also falling victim to those results. There's now a two point gap to survival and Everton in 17th, who also have a more favourable run of games than Leeds.

Allardyce has a decent track record at keeping sides in the Premier League when appointed. However, time is not on his side and with a tough run of games on the horizon, Leeds need a near perfect end to the season.
