Leeds United have just two matches left to ensure their long-awaited return to the Premier League does not end after three seasons. The Whites need to pick up points while relying on their relegation rivals to stumble elsewhere.
Survival specialist Sam Allardyce was called upon with just four matches remaining, and his two games in charge so far have brought a solitary point. Leeds' delivered an improved display in a narrow defeat at defending champions Manchester City, while a 2-2 draw was played out with high-flying Newcastle United at Elland Road last time out.
However, this mini-revival could still come to a shuddering halt in the penultimate weekend, with United currently sat a point adrift of safety. It is not a scenario Leeds' fans will enjoy contemplating, but the worst-case scenario for the upcoming fixtures could condemn the Whites to relegation with a match to spare.
