Leeds United will take on Manchester City at Elland Road on Saturday, 28 February, in a match that will have an impact on both ends of the Premier League table.
The hosts come into the match six points clear of the relegation zone, but with West Ham in good form, the Whites won't consider themselves out of trouble quite yet.
The visitors, meanwhile, trail Arsenal by five points but know that if they win out from here, they will be crowned champions in May.

Leeds vs Man City prediction: Hosts to walk away with something
Key stats
- Manchester City needed a stoppage-time goal from Phil Foden to defeat Leeds in the reverse fixture.
- Manchester City have failed to win seven of their 13 Premier League away matches this season.
- Both teams have scored in four of Leeds' last five Premier League matches.
Correct score prediction: Leeds 1-1 Man City
Leeds have become a team that are difficult to beat in recent times, and although Manchester City currently have their tails up, their sketchy away form is enough to lean towards the hosts at least picking up a point on Saturday.

Player to watch: Dominic Calvert-Lewin
With England’s final pre-World Cup squad set to be announced next month, Dominic Calvert-Lewin will be doing all he can to prove to Thomas Tuchel that he is the perfect understudy for Harry Kane. The former Everton striker has scored ten league goals this season and needs just six more to match his previous best.
