If Leeds didn't need anymore of an incentive to beat Leicester City on Thursday, then Southampton's victory against AFC Bournemouth should provide them with a much-needed kick up the backside.
Che Adams's ninth-minute opener proved enough to earn Southampton a first victory since August and end a five-match winless run (L4, D1) on Wednesday. As a result of their win on the South Coast, Saints climbed out of the relegation zone and jumped above Leeds in the table.
It also means that Leeds will head to the King Power Stadium level on points with Wolves in 18th. It may be worth pointing out that Leeds have two games in hand on Wolves and Nottingham Forest, but a defeat would increase concerns.
