Strong Leeds United call v Spurs, Palace, West Ham, Forest in Opta's new predicted final Premier League table

Leeds United have given themselves a huge fresh boost in the club’s quest for Premier League survival - and stats experts Opta have made a strong fresh Whites call in their new predicted final table and points.

Daniel Farke’s Whites approached Friday night’s hosting of Nottingham Forest sat fifth-bottom, level on points with fourth-bottom Forest and six points clear of the division’s relegation zone.

Friday’s contest, though, offered Leeds and Forest the chance to kick nine points clear of third-bottom West Ham, albeit having played a game more, and Farke’s Whites took the opportunity with both hands in recording a superb 3-1 success.

The victory has not only kicked Leeds nine points clear of West Ham but also three points ahead of Forest on the same amount of games played.

West Ham visit second-bottom Burnley on Saturday afternoon in what is now their game in hand.

But despite remaining in 16th place, Leeds have also now joined both 14th-placed Tottenham and 15th-placed Crystal Palace on 29 points, albeit, like the Hammers, both teams have played a game less.

Nevertheless, the table is now looking considerably rosier and data experts Opta have made a strong fresh Whites call in their new predicted final table and points.

Here is the full new rundown in reverse order.
