Leeds United are on a mission to secure their promotion back to the Premier League, with BBC reporter Phil McNulty tipping them to clinch the Championship title this season. While Leicester City initially seemed like the frontrunners, a dip in form and a resurgence from other clubs have made the race for the title an exciting one in the final stretch of the season.
Currently sitting at the top of the standings, Leeds are neck and neck with Leicester, but with a slight edge in goal difference. With both promotion and the title at stake, every game is crucial for Marcelo Bielsa’s side. As other teams like Ipswich Town and Southampton also vie for promotion, the competition is fierce in the Championship.
McNulty believes Leeds will come out on top, but acknowledges the unpredictable nature of the league. The prospect of returning to the Premier League is not only crucial for Leeds’ success on the pitch but also in attracting top talent like Luca Netz from Borussia Monchengladbach.
With players like Summerville, Gray, and Rutter eyeing a chance to shine in the top flight, securing promotion is vital for Leeds to retain their key assets and continue their upward trajectory. The battle for promotion is far from over, but Leeds are determined to make a triumphant return to the Premier League.
