Leeds United are on a roll like no other, and they will aim to strike Chelsea’s open wounds in the FA Cup on Wednesday.

The Elland Road crowd will be hoping that this is a Premier League encounter next season, as they have every chance of returning after defeating leaders Leicester City on Friday night.

Some may now pick Daniel Farke’s team to secure the final automatic position – they are level on points with third-placed Ipswich Town – but Chris Sutton has gone a step further and predicted Leeds United to win the Championship altogether.

That stunned former Leicester City footballer Robbie Savage, who went on to ask his colleague commentator numerous times if he truly meant what he said, as he informed 606.

The Yorkshire team is currently six points behind the Foxes, who also boast a stronger goal difference despite losing two consecutive games.

Chris, do you think Leeds and Leicester are the two who will go up,” asked Savage.  Su Hutton responded: “It looks that way. I fancy Leeds to win it.

”If Leeds are to pull off the impossible, their promotion opponents must lose more games, which will be difficult given that they have lost 6 of 34.

While Leeds supporters believe, so does Chris Sutton after their current performance, but it appears that his partner in crime needs to be convinced.
