Leeds began the weekend sat in the division’s second automatic promotion spot but only ahead of third-placed Burnley on goal difference. The Whites and Clarets were then both in action in Saturday lunchtime kick-offs. As Leeds were held to a 1-1 draw at Luton, Burnley rocketed into top spot with a 2-1 victory at Coventry City, moving one point above Sheffield United who dropped to second and two points clear of Leeds who dropped to third. Sheffield United, though, were left with a game in hand and had the opportunity to reclaim top spot in their 3pm kick-off at Oxford United. Yet the Blades fell to a surprising 1-0 defeat which left Chris Wilder’s side second, one point behind Burnley and only one point ahead of Farke’s Whites. The results also allowed fourth-placed Sunderland to make ground, the Black Cats winning 1-0 at West Brom and now only seven points behind Leeds with six games left.
