“It will be very difficult for them”- Gabby Agbonlahor Breaks Silence as he Drops Bombshell Prediction in Leeds vs Sheffield United Promotion Race
Championship Title Race: Leeds United Lead the Pack with Four Games Remaining
With just four fixtures left in the Championship season, Leeds United sit at the summit, level on points with Burnley but holding a five-point cushion over third-placed Sheffield United. Promotion is looking increasingly likely for Daniel Farke’s side.
Unlike last season, when Leeds faltered down the stretch and managed only seven points from their final seven matches, this time their dip in form came earlier—giving them time to recover.
Following impressive victories over Sunderland and Sheffield United, Leeds stumbled, winning just once in their next six games and suffering a fourth defeat of the season to Portsmouth.
However, they’ve since regained momentum with back-to-back wins over Middlesbrough and Preston.
Meanwhile, Sheffield United’s promotion push has taken a hit with three straight defeats.
Ally McCoist still believes the Blades have a shot at a top-two finish, but with Leeds now five points ahead, it’s a tall order.
Gabby Agbonlahor Backs Leeds, Questions Sheffield United
Leeds face Oxford United this Friday before taking on Stoke, Bristol City, and Plymouth—four games that look favorable on paper. The same can’t be said for their rivals.
Sheffield United must travel to face Burnley on Monday, and despite Burnley being in top form, they arguably have the toughest schedule of the promotion chasers.
Speaking on TalkSPORT (April 14 at 4:55 PM), former striker Gabby Agbonlahor—known for his controversial takes on Leeds—offered rare praise, while casting doubt on Sheffield United’s prospects.
“In my view, Wilder is losing control. You simply can’t afford defeats to Millwall and Plymouth at this stage.
With a five-point gap and four games left, and with Burnley still to play, it looks grim for Sheffield United.
Leeds and Burnley are holding their nerve under pressure. It’ll be very tough for Sheffield United—they might drop more points. Leeds and Burnley seem destined for the top two.”
Chris Wilder’s Reaction to Plymouth Loss
Still clearly frustrated after Sheffield United’s unexpected 2-1 defeat to Plymouth—and following a heated reaction to Darko Gyabi and a Plymouth player walking past the away fans—manager Chris Wilder didn’t sugarcoat the situation.
He admitted that teams aiming for automatic promotion simply can’t afford to lose three consecutive games at this point in the season, but insisted his team won’t throw in the towel.
Like Leeds, Sheffield United have a poor track record in the playoffs, so avoiding third place is crucial.
However, to have any hope of securing automatic promotion, they’ll need to win all four of their remaining games.
That’s a daunting task, especially as one of those games is away to Burnley, who are unbeaten in 29 matches.
Even in the unlikely event that Sheffield United win out, Leeds would only need seven points from their final four games to clinch promotion.
