According to the latest supercomputer predictions, Leeds United will finish the Championship season with 94 points.
The Athletic shared the same prediction, reporting on its website on Thursday (22 February) that Leicester City will finish top with 103 points.
Leeds are expected to finish second on points, with Ipswich Town third and Southampton fourth.
“Opta estimates that Leicester will finish with 103 points, Leeds with 94, Ipswich with 91 and Southampton with 90,” according to The Athletic.
Can Leeds United keep up their good form in the Championship?
It’s been another rollercoaster campaign in the Championship so far, with no fewer than four clubs appearing to be involved in the race to the top.
Leicester are in first place as the Foxes are currently top with 78 points.
The closest rivals are the Whites and Traktor Boys, both clubs on 69 points, with the latter firmly back on track after a difficult period.
The former have been very stable for some time now, with Daniel Farke’s men picking up win after win. However, there has been no consistency in Southampton as they have dropped to fourth place due to mixed results.
As Leicester have essentially already won the title, it will be very interesting to see how the next three places play out in the coming months.
The trio of Leeds, Ipswich and Southampton may not have given up top spot yet, but their priority now will surely be the automatic promotion places.
