Leeds United have been given an automatic promotion lifeline – and a fresh prediction has been made on how the final Championship table will look.
Daniel Farke’s Whites offered a massive opening to autos rivals Ipswich Town as Friday night’s clash at Queens Park Rangers ended in a 4-0 loss for United’s heaviest league defeat of the season. The big setback left Leeds just one point clear of third-placed Ipswich in the division’s second automatic promotion spot but with Kieran McKenna’s side having two games in hand.
But the Leeds lifeline of the draw at Hull means that United’s automatic promotion bid will definitely still be alive heading into the last day of the season when Farke’s Whites host Southampton as Ipswich entertain relegation-bound Huddersfield Town. For Southampton, though, the top two quest is now over, Russell Martin’s Saints destined to finish fourth following Saturday’s 1-0 defeat at home to Stoke City.
