Blackburn Rovers host Leeds United on the back of an impressive win at Middlesbrough
Blackburn Rovers boss John Eustace has tipped Leeds United to secure automatic promotion this season. The Whites travel to Ewood Park tomorrow looking to tighten their grip on top spot.
"They have carried on from where they were last season, they have brilliant players and a great manager," Eustace, whose side are eighth in the table after their midweek win at Middlesbrough, told the Lancashire Telegraph. "They will be in the top-six, probably top two I would reckon, at the end of the season. They have Premier League quality and we will have a game plan as we always do to try and stop that.
"The lads are confident because performances have been good. Watford was good, the first half against Sheffield United was good. We have spoken about setbacks from that game and not dropping our heads."I hope the fans will be right behind us after two wins. The performances are heading in the right direction, they're good but the results don't always come. We believe in what we're doing and we hope that is clear to see.
