Leeds fixtures compared to Leicester, Everton & Nottingham Forest after Newcastle point
Leeds could only grab a point from their must-win clash with Champions League-chasing Newcastle on Saturday afternoon.
Three penalties were awarded Elland Road and two converted by Callum Wilson, but Luke Ayling's opener and Rasmus Kristensen's deflected leveller ensured Sam Allardyce grabbed his first point as United boss.
They remain in the bottom three, however, and will need Nottingham Forest and Everton to lose if they are to make up ground in the Premier League relegation scrap.
Here's who each side still at risk of going down has coming up next.
Leeds' remaining fixtures
It was an afternoon of missed opportunities for Leeds as they managed a 2-2 draw with Newcastle.
Patrick Bamford missed from the penalty spot when he could have sent the Whites two goals up within half an hour. Instead, wins against West Ham and Tottenham in their final two games are crucial if they are to avoid the drop.
Date / Kick-off Time | Fixture |
---|---|
21/05/23 - 13:30 | West Ham vs Leeds |
28/05/23 - 16:30 | Leeds vs Tottenham |
Leicester's remaining fixtures
Leicester will be the last team threatened by relegation to play this weekend when they host Liverpool on Monday night.
The Foxes have looked rather rudderless in recent weeks and games against the Reds and Newcastle look unlikely to yield many returns.
Wins are what they need, however, and if none arrive they could be relegated before the final day, when they host West Ham.
Date / Kick-off Time | Fixture |

15/05/23 - 20:00 | Leicester vs Liverpool |
22/05/23 - 20:00 | Newcastle vs Leicester |
28/05/23 - 16:30 | Leicester vs West Ham |
Everton's remaining fixtures
Everton's rampant win over Brighton means they sit outside the bottom three following Leeds' draw with Newcastle.
Sunday's clash with Manchester City is a bit of a free hit before clashes with Wolves and Bournemouth, who have both moved away from the bottom three and the resulting threat of relegation.
Date / Kick-off Time | Fixture |

14/05/23 - 14:00 | Everton vs Manchester City |
20/05/23 - 15:00 | Wolves vs Everton |
28/05/23 - 16:30 | Everton vs Bournemouth |
Nottingham Forest's remaining fixtures
Forest are another side to have edged away from danger, but they still need a handful of points from their last three games and none are straightforward.
The trip to Chelsea may be Steve Cooper's best shot of grabbing another victory. Even with their poor away record, three points at Stamford Bridge seems more likely than at home to an Arsenal side still fighting for the title.
The final day trip to Crystal Palace may well be laced with danger and a few more points on the board before that game could be the difference between survival and relegation.
