Who will win? RadioTimes.com says...

Not only do Leeds have the edge over the automatic promotion places, but Norwich’s stutter has dangled the carrot of going up as champions in front of Bielsa’s men.

The mentality has always been nervously looking over their shoulders, but with their fate in their own hands, Leeds’ attention should be fixed on catching the Canaries.

Patrick Bamford has bounced back into form at the perfect time following several dire missed chances, demonstrating the sort of mental steel Leeds will require in spades throughout the coming games.

Prediction: Leeds 3-1 Wigan
