Key events

Leeds 2-0 Wolves: Tim Smith gets in touch to say: “A little harsh to say Justin’s goal “ went through” Bentley. He’d just made a great save and then was unsighted for a point blank overhead kick. Blame the defending all you want on that one. Oh and come on Leeds!”

Leeds 2-0 Wolves: This could be a grim day for Wolves. Losing to Leeds and a win for Tottenham against Brighton could relegate them.

Via the BBC’s permutation guru Dale Johnson: “Wolves’ fate will be sealed if they lose to Leeds and Tottenham Hotspur beat Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday or West Ham United take at least a point in their Monday night game at Crystal Palace.

“Even if Wolves were to pick up a point in West Yorkshire, they could still go down if West Ham win and Nottingham Forest avoid defeat against second-bottom Burnley.”

Graham Randall gets in touch: “I don’t think I have seen a more spineless Leicester team in my life. Absolutely devoid of any ideas, tactics or anything that makes a team good. Commentators keep saying “ Leicester have a lot of quality” not sure where. Very depressing As it is. The Robert Johnson crossroads are a 10 hour drive away. Might take a trip there and see if I can find someone to make a deal with.”

Hellhounds on Leicester’s trail, certainly.

Newcastle 0-0 Bournemouth: My colleague Louise Taylor points out: “Anthony Gordon is officially injured but, given Eddie Howe’s pledge to not pick “anyone not 100 per cent committed to Newcastle” in the face of transfer speculation a lot of people have decided that 2+2 =4 Gordon dropped. Perhaps also significantly Sandro Tonali is not merely playing but named as captain.”

Away we go in the 3pm kick-offs

So much riding on these next two hours.

On Anthony Gordon, this Eddie Howe quote from Friday might well be pertinent: “I’m not going to play any player if I don’t feel they are 100% committed to the club and their future. That is generally across the board. I always do what I think is best for the team.”

Here’s Taha Hashim’s report from Brentford.

For Newcastle, the big news is Anthony Gordon missing out, with “a minor hip flexor issue” while Joelinton is suspended. Gordon has been linked with Bayern Munich this week. Jacob Ramsey, Anthony Elanga and Harvey Barnes each return, while Bruno Guimaraes returns to matchday squad for the first time since early February.

Andoni Iraola names the same Bournemouth team that triumphed at Arsenal last week.

Jeremy Boyce gets in touch: “Hand-on-heart Leeds-til-I-die (since childhood) fan here. Big afternoon up at crumbling Elland Road. A win today will surely see us safe, meaning that we can look forward to having the dosh for some much-needed ground improvements, also to sit back and enjoy watching Spurs getting done over at their lovely new cheese-shop home later by the loveable Seagulls. In the event of a Dan James kneed-in winner in stoppage time this afternoon, I predict a Kaiser Chiefs single will result.

“By the way, Spurs fans, we share your pain. A crap chairman/owner is the worst of all things. Ask Man U. Been there, done that, got the t shirt. Anyone remember Peter Ridsdale ? Preston fans, be careful what you wish for. The bottom line is, sometimes you’ve got to get down to get up.”

Leeds have named the same team that delivered that famous win at Old Trafford. Wolves have made just two changes from losing 4-0 at West Ham last Friday. Jose Sa is replaced by Dan Bentley in goal while Toti Gomes comes in to captain the side, Yerson Mosquera is suspended after a silly 10th yellow of the season last week.
