Now just 6 points with a game in hand.

Good day - a difficult fixture won - an easy fixture drawn. Leeds move closer to that guaranteed promotion spot. Latest Championship League Table Sheffield could only draw at home to bottom of the table Crewe. Leeds won 2-1 away to Crystal Palace - Palace are currently 5th, also in the play-off zone. I would have been happy with a draw there. The run in is still very challenging for Leeds. Next week looks ok, with Leeds at home to Norwich (10th); Sheffield away to Coventry (12th) while Watford should fall further behind away to Reading. Currently, my realistic prediction sees Leeds finishing 7 points behind Sheffield. That's because Sheffield have just 2 difficult games left and they are both at home. Leeds have 4 difficult games left including away at Sheffield. Leeds can continue to improve their chances over the next few weeks. A home win at Crystal Palace on the 21st March is the next big target. However their fate will be seal in the 15th and 18th of April with Reading at Elland Road and Sheffield at Bramall Lane. We continue to hope.
