A hammer blow to Leeds United’s automatic promotion hopes is expected with strong backing for a rival.
Daniel Farke’s Whites remain in the Championship’s second automatic place with just one game left but only on goal difference ahead of Ipswich Town who have played one game less. Ipswich’s game in hand now presents itself this evening at Coventry City and the bookmakers confidently expect Kieran McKenna’s side to leave with a positive result which would create a major Whites issue going into Saturday’s final day.
Coventry sit ninth in the table but with the play-offs now out of reach. The Sky Blues are rated 10-3 shots to beat Ipswich who are a shade of odds-on with every bookmaker in being no bigger than 5-6 but as short as 8-11. The draw is 16-5. But the market that matters most to Leeds is the ‘double chance’ of either an Ipswich win or a draw which is a strong odds-on shot at 2-7.
