Leicester City winger, Marc Albrighton, has confidently predicted that Ipswich Town will secure automatic promotion ahead of Leeds United this week.
Leeds has two crucial games left in the race for promotion, starting with a challenging trip to QPR tonight followed by Ipswich Town’s match tomorrow evening.
For Leeds to secure a spot in the top two, they must win both games and hope Ipswich Town does not match their performance. However, Leicester City’s recent dominating victory over Southampton has already put them on the brink of promotion.
Leeds’ goal difference advantage over Ipswich means any misstep from the Tractor Boys alongside Leeds’ victories would guarantee promotion for the Yorkshire side.
Marc Albrighton shared his thoughts on the promotion race during an interview, expressing his belief that Ipswich’s never-say-die spirit and fantastic performance throughout the season deserve a spot in the top two alongside Leicester.
As the season draws to a close, the excitement and tension are palpable for Leeds, Ipswich, and other contenders hoping to secure their place in the top flight next season.
