1. Imagine, just imagine…
Imagine, just imagine if Derby County are the team that well and truly sets Leeds United on their way to the top-flight. Three points against Brentford and all of last season might be forgiven… or maybe not. Photo: Alex Livesey
2. But there is one man to be wary of
Rhian Brewster, previously linked with a loan move to Elland Road, has been in red hot form since the restart with four goals in five games. Will the Liverpool man break a resilient Leeds United defence? Photo: Lewis Storey
3. Wait, what? A World Cup final?
West Brom boss Slaven Bilic has issued a very strong statement ahead of the trip to Blackburn. “I want to send the players the message that we are playing a World Cup final on Saturday. There’s no room at any stage of the season for complacency but especially now.” Photo: David Rogers
4. All eyes on Cardiff City
Cardiff, the team currently occupying the final play-off spot, face a Fulham side who still have one eye on the top two. Any slip up for Neil Harris’ side then Swansea, Derby and Preston North End are all waiting to pounce. Photo: Alex Livesey
