Following consecutive victories, Leeds United have taken a huge couple of steps towards Premier League safety in the last couple of weeks. Jesse Marsch’s side have established a seven-point gap to the bottom three although, each of the sides below have at least one game in hand.
Whilst Whites supporters will be hoping it doesn’t, the top-flight relegation battle could well go right down to the wire with several teams fighting to stay up. Leeds have been able to give themselves a strong chance of being one of the sides who will avoid the drop with six other teams involved in the dogfight at the bottom.
The real business end of the season begins after the upcoming international break and certain fans will be more confident than others about their teams’ chances. Leeds are one of just four Premier League teams to have played 30 games so far this term and will be aware that they have a few winnable games amongst their remaining eight matches.
