Leeds United's final 5 fixtures compared to Championship promotion rivals with huge advantage over Burnley

Leeds United have automatic promotion in their hands with just five games left after a midweek round of action in which they were certainly the victors. A hard-fought 1-0 win at Middlesbrough sent them top of the Championship while Burnley and Sheffield United both dropped points, the latter falling to third following a 1-0 defeat at home to Millwall.

Daniel Farke’s side blew a commanding lead with one win in six and while Tuesday’s twist has put them straight back in the driving seat, nothing is decided. There are still 15 points for each team to play for and some mammoth fixtures to come, not least Sheffield United’s Easter Monday trip to Turf Moor.
