3 huge Championship clashes to keep an eye on this evening

Fulham vs Leeds United

It’s seventh versus fourth in the Championship at Craven Cottage this evening as play-off chasers Fulham host Garry Monk’s Leeds.

Slavisa Jokanovic’s men are just five points adrift of the top six with a game in hand on the above three teams, and they go into tonight’s clash having won four of their last five games, including their last four at home.

And with just one league defeat at Craven Cottage since the start of October, Monk’s Leeds will have a battle on their hands this evening, although they themselves have put a decent run together since losing back-to-back games against Huddersfield and Cardiff in February.

The Yorkshire club have won three of their last four matches, and won 3-1 at Birmingham in their last away outing to consolidate their position in the play-off places.

Leeds have won eight of their 17 away Championship matches this term, but they will know the importance of this evening’s game, as defeat would put Fulham right in the hunt for a top six place.
