Don Goodman believes that the quality on display in the top tier of the Championship this season is unprecedented, with Leeds United positioned to secure a top two finish. The prospect of moving level on points with leaders Leicester City by defeating Millwall on Sunday presents an exciting opportunity for Leeds.
Ipswich Town currently holds the second spot following their impressive 6-0 victory over Sheffield Wednesday, with Southampton trailing behind Leeds by six points. The competition for promotion has been fierce, with the possibility of two teams breaking the record for the highest points total without securing automatic promotion to the Premier League.
Goodman expressed his amazement at the intensity of this season’s promotion race, highlighting the consistency of the top four teams in maintaining an average of two points per game. Despite facing challenges along the way, Leeds has managed to assert their dominance and find ways to secure victories even when not at their best.
As Leicester City experiences a dip in form, Goodman believes that Leeds has a strong chance of emerging as the favorites to clinch the top spot in the league. Momentum and resilience have been key factors in Leeds’ success, propelling them into contention for a top two finish.
The upcoming clash with Millwall at Elland Road presents a crucial opportunity for Leeds to solidify their position at the top of the table. With the race for promotion heating up, every point matters, and Leeds is determined to capitalize on their current form to secure a coveted spot in the Premier League.
