Daniel Farke’s Whites headed for Friday night’s Yorkshire derby at Sheffield Wednesday sat on just two points out of a possible six following an opening weekend 3-3 draw at home to Portsmouth and then a goalless stalemate at West Brom.
Leeds, though, bagged their first three-point haul of the new campaign in impressive fashion at Hillsborough as lovely goals from Brenden Aaronson and Dan James sealed a 2-0 victory for a dominant Whites. The triumph put Farke’s side on five points from a possible nine ahead of the weekend’s other fixtures in which much-fancied Burnley travelled to Sunderland in a Saturday afternoon 3pm kick-off.
Both sides went into the contest having won their first two games but Burnley’s perfect start came to a halt as the Black Cats sealed a 1-0 success. Burnley had been title favourites heading into the contest, ahead of which Sunderland were still 20-1 shots.
There is, though, now a revised verdict and this is how the bookmakers are now predicting the final Championship table to look based on the very latest odds.
