Leeds United have one of the toughest run-ins in the battle against Premier League relegation, but it’s not as bad as some, it seems. The Whites currently find themselves perched precariously on the edge of the relegation zone, with goal difference the only thing keeping them out of the bottom three with just 13 games to play.
As such, Javi Gracia’s side need to find form and do it quickly if they are to pull away from danger before the end of the campaign. Gracia made a fine start to life at Elland Road last month with a win over Southampton, who were bottom of the table at the time, but Leeds were unable to build on that at Chelsea last weekend.
Fans could be forgiven, then, for looking down the club’s fixture list and assessing where the points Leeds require will come from. United’s schedule isn’t a pretty sight, with games against top five sides Liverpool, Arsenal, Tottenham and Manchester City still to come.
