Leeds United's battle with Premier League relegation will go right to the last game of the season - but pundits are in disagreement over whether Sam Allardyce and Co will be successful.
The Whites picked up what could be a valuable point in the 2-2 draw with Newcastle United on Saturday lunchtime which leaves them a point behind fourth-bottom Everton and three behind Nottinham Forest.
Everton take on Manchester City today (2pm), while second-bottom Leicester City host Liverpool on Monday night, with Leeds fans hoping neither pick up any points. However, while there was disgreement among the BT Sport pundits over whether Leeds can survive, for Whites midfielder Gary McAllister remained optimistic with just two games remaining.

"I’m still believing," he said. "There’s going to be more twists and turns in the next 24 hours, as well as on Monday night, it’s not going to go away until the very last kick of the last game. That’s my feeling."
His views were not echoied by former Newcastle, Tottenham and Nottingham Forest midifelder Jermaine Jenas, who added: 2No, I think they’ll just fall short unfortunately. I think looking at them today they’ve got spirit and they’ve got a lot of fight, but I just still worry about the quality and whether they’ve got enough.
"Obviously I’m backing Forest so that might be a slightly biassed opinion. I just don’t think they’ve got enough to stay in the league."
The race is set to go right to the wire - but former West Ham and Chelsea star Joe Cole feels the Elland Road crowd could be a key factor when Tottenham come to Yorkshire on the final day.
"If they can get to the last game of the season against Tottenham Hotspur, with Tottenham possibly nothing to play for, this place could be electric," Cole said. "They really drove their team on today. It could be two of any of the four.
