Opta update shifts Leeds picture after Palace draw, huge Spurs call noted | OneFootball

Leeds United remain unbeaten heading into the international break and, according to yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk, Opta have issued a fresh projection on where they could finish in their second season back in the Premier League.

Daniel Farke’s side hosted Crystal Palace on Sunday knowing a win would have taken them third and within one point of Arsenal, but a goalless draw kept them fifth after five games.

Leeds finished 14th last season, their first campaign back, and early signs suggest they could be tracking towards a stronger return.

Following Sunday’s draw, Opta released an updated predicted final table featuring a Leeds change and particularly big calls involving Tottenham Hotspur, Hull City and Fulham.

Arsenal are projected first on 76 points, with Manchester City second on 75. Liverpool are predicted third with 62 points, Brighton fourth with 60. Chelsea are tipped for fifth on 55, with Brentford sixth on 54, up from seventh.
