Leeds United told there's only one outcome Sunday with Everton relegation call made

Few people out there are seemingly giving Leeds United any chance of staying in the Premier League. From pundits and supporters alike, it seems to be a fairly consistent view that the Whites are going down to the Championship.

Most are expecting Leeds to struggle against Tottenham Hotspur at Elland Road on Sunday, with the club tipped to not get the three points needed that would give tham even the smallest of chances of staying up. Former Arsenal star Nigel Winterburn isn't of that mind, he believes it doesn't matter what Leeds do with Everton nailed on to stay up by beating Bournemouth, thus relegating Leeds and Leicester City.

Speaking to Paddy Power Winterburn said: "I don’t see anyone other than Leicester and Leeds getting relegated on the final day. I think Everton will win against Bournemouth, so it won’t matter what the other results are. I hope it’s dramatic going into the last 30 minutes, that’ll make it exciting!"

Leeds' players and staff alike would no doubt love it if their future was still up in the air going into the final 30 minutes as Winterburn says, as it would mean the Whites still had a chance of staying up.
