The relegation battle has become very tight after an improved run of form by Burnley in the last ten days.

But there has been a change, not just in terms of results, but how they’ve gone about it. Given that the Whites are only three points away from that total, whilst Everton require eight more points to get there, Leeds are favourites, even with difficult fixtures remaining. "I think Everton will get to 35.

A fourth consecutive win moved Newcastle United up to ninth in the table and ended any lingering relegation doubts.

The Gunners are current favourites for fourth spot but face a tight battle with their north London rivals for Champions League football. The supercomputer predicts that Jurgen Kopp’s side will narrowly miss out on a second Premier League title. It will be a close title run-in, however Manchester City look like just having an edge to claim back-to-back Premier League titles.

Company behind productions on Leeds United and Leeds Rhinos ... (Yorkshire Post)

The Leeds-based media company behind productions on Leeds Rhinos and Leeds United have released a film about Glasgow Rangers. Ross Heppenstall reports.

“From a creative point, we take his words and use them in the film so, even though he’s not here, he’s still a really important voice in the story. Rangers supporters in their forties and fifties onwards have told me they are really glad that this film has been made so they can see important this team was. The trophy presentation was anything but conventional either. “A lot of the younger generation’s parents or grandparents might have been in Barcelona, so it’s nice to have these stories passed on and documented in a film.” “What I think we do well in the film is take Waddell to the screen through what the players said about him and we have also used his actual handwritten notes and tactics from the 1971-72 European campaign. Rangers72 paints a picture of life in Glasgow in the early 1970s and details how Waddell led the club’s response to the tragedy, laying the foundations for their European success.

Leeds United, Everton and Burnley relegation run-ins compared as ... (Leeds Live)

Leeds United ended their 16-day wait for a Premier League fixture last night with a goalless draw against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.

After this weekend’s home match with Chelsea, Everton will target the next four fixtures as their opportunity to escape from danger. With Leeds playing City, Everton hosting Chelsea and Burnley making the trip to Watford this weekend, the Clarets could see this as another huge opportunity to pull away from danger. Everton are now the side who find themselves in the bottom three as the Toffees continue to struggle away from Goodison Park.

Zaha gets a second bite at it from a tighter angle, but the keeper stretches to kick that one away as well. Clyne fizzes a great throughball down the left for Olise, but a heavy touch takes it away from him before he can put in a cross. He has Schlupp ahead of him, but he knocks it straight out of play to big groans from the fans. The points are shared after a goalless draw between Crystal Palace and Leeds United. The hosts dominated the game, creating some great chances, but they just couldn't find a way through their opponents. His shot takes a deflection off Ayling, and it loops just wide of the far top corner. Leeds stay in 16th, and that point means they're now five points above Everton and the relegation zone.

Leeds lose it, Palace break, Ayling trips Zaha. A yellow for me, that. Toes it past the keeper but there's not quite enough on it and Leeds are able to hack it clear. Will we see a bit more quality in the second dig? A nice crossfield pass here, Raphinha picks it up in the inside right channel, cuts inside and tries to fire it left foot. Leeds are the first to show here. Booking for that, and then a booking for Ward as well for retaliating. It all made for a well-earned point for Leeds, even if they might have needed more. The arrival of Michael Olise helped in that regard and before long they were creating chances for Zaha — denied twice by Leeds goalkeeper Illan Meslier — and Conor Gallagher, who fired over from range. The scrappiness of the game did not suit Palace’s players, who created chances but never looked likely to show the ruthless edge that was required against a spirited Leeds backline. Such was the animosity that Vieira once accused Marsch of swaying the referees by “crying all week” in the build-up to the game. An ugly point, but a point nonetheless for a Leeds United team that remains a part of this relegation scrap whether they like it or not. The fixture list is not a source of encouragement for Leeds, who face Manchester City, Arsenal and Chelsea in their next three games.

Jesse Marsch has confirmed Leeds United's team at Crystal Palace in he Premier League on Monday night at Selhurst Park.

Illan Meslier has recovered from the knock at Wolverhampton Wanderers while Luke Ayling and Stuart Dallas continue in the full-back positions. Diego Llorente retains his place alongside Liam Cooper after praise from Marsch for the clean sheet at Vicarage Road. One change was enough for Jesse Marsch in the Leeds United line-up which saw off Watford 3-0 more than two weeks ago with Kalvin Phillips restored.

Next up for the Whites is a match with top of the table Manchester City, at Elland Road. A lively feel to the match continued. His low left-footed ball into the middle found Mateta in space, but the forward smashed it high over the bar. Little free-kicks were being awarded in all areas of the pitch which stopped any flow or rhythm that either team could attempt to get into. When the whistle went for the interval, no major chances had come at either end meaning each goalkeeper hadn’t really been tested either. Jack Harrison and Stuart Dallas had goal bound efforts well blocked, before Liam Cooper connected well with a Harrison corner only to see Vicente Guaita save his header.

Leeds United v Crystal Palace player ratings: Dan James in another ... (MOT Leeds News)

Leeds United shared the spoils against Crystal Palace as the two sides played out a goalless draw at Selhurst Park on Monday night (April 25).

With each passing game, the decision to start him as a nine seems only more baffling. The left foot of Harrison was more threatening than Raphinha’s today. Patrick Vieira set his team up to force Leeds to play it wide instead of dominating in the middle. He was imperious in the air and did not lose a single duel. He did not do enough to link up with the attacking players and defensively he surely could have done better. Made seven decent saves as well including two back to back ones in the dying stages.

And I'm then looking at Leeds' fixtures and thinking can they get four points out of that? The Clarets have played a game more than Leeds, while Everton trail the Whites by four points having also played 32 times this season. The Whites face Crystal Palace, Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal over the course of their next four games but are just four points clear of the bottom three as the campaign heads into the final straight.

The 18-year-old has become a regular for the Dons, having made 23 appearances in the Scottish Premier League this season. He has scored four goals and registered two assists, no mean feat given the quality of the English second tier.

Leeds United were crowned English football's First Division champions on 26 April 1992 as the Whites defeated Sheffield United 3-2 at Bramall Lane.

There have been core themes to the last 30 years of Leeds United's decorated history: financial disorganisation, administration and redemption. The club's second tier triumph in 2020 was the first opportunity an entire generation of Leeds supporters had to celebrate a truly consequential achievement. Gordon Strachan's quick-thinking at a short free-kick allowed Leeds to draw level before the break as Rod Wallace tore through.

You have to find way to be good on the count, make it difficult on the opponent and to still have a little bit more creativity and ideas on how to connect to get to the final third, then create big chances. "It's because we're not spread out all over the pitch and allowing the opponent to win balls and attack us straight down the middle. We certainly have more work to do and there's some moments when we're man marking phases and trying to break out of that more and more. "In some moments we executed well against the ball well and in other moments we should have done better with the ball. More work to do with the ball and creating chances. If we can continue to do that, against good opponents, then we believe in our ability up the field to still find goals." JM: "We thought that we could win more balls in the middle of the field. JM: "No, I just felt like we needed more of a defensive presence in there and an ability to help press. To be fair, Illan [Meslier] was brave in a lot of moments and got our centre-backs into the game. "I know this season already, one of my teams has played against Man City and I know what a challenge that game is, I know how difficult it is to limit their best players from making good plays and their movement and ideas of what to do with the ball.

Leeds United are set to take on the league leaders at one of the most precarious moments of the Whites' Premier League season.

His promotion of Rodrigo to the senior leadership group, for instance, is already paying dividends on the pitch and in terms of results. Marsch has shown great faith in the Whites' young players since he arrived at the club in February. On Monday, he trusted Gelhardt and Greenwood to change the game in the second half as the Premier League clash threatened to turn into a stalemate. Some critics were disparaging about the performative way Marsch gathered his players together for a huddle on the pitch at the King Power Stadium after the Whites lost his first game in charge against Leicester in March, but you can't deny the impact of his person-orientated approach.
