Leeds United are expected to overcome a big early play-offs obstacle but the view has changed on the eventual conclusion.
United’s quest for promotion is now dependent on the Championship play-offs in which Leeds face boss Daniel Farke’s former side Norwich City over two legs in the semi-final. As the division’s third-placed side, Leeds have home advantage for the second leg at Elland Road next Thursday evening, four days after Sunday lunchtime’s first leg at Carrow Road.
Farke’s Whites are as short as 11-10 and no bigger than 6-5 whereas Norwich can be backed at 12-5. The draw is on offer at 13-5 and Leeds are as short as 4-11 to leave with either a draw or a victory. As far as the tie as a whole is concerned, the bookmakers are confident that Farke’s side will book their place in the Wembley play-off final as Leeds are 4-9 to progress compared to Norwich who are 2s.
