NBC Sports Robbie Earle and Tim Howard reckon Leeds United's short spell in the Premier League could be about to end, with both pundits tipping the Whites for relegation. The relegation battle was plunged into further chaos this weekend as both Burnley and Everton managed to pull of impressive wins while Leeds fell 4-0 to Manchester City at home on Saturday night.
The weekend results mean that Leeds sit two points ahead of 18th placed Everton, but have played one game more, meaning that once the Toffees have played the same amount of games, Jesse Marsch's side could be in the bottom three. Leeds only have four games left to secure their Premier League survival, with games against Arsenal, Chelsea, Brighton and Brentford left on the slate.
And the NBC pair believe Leeds could well be on their way to join Watford and Norwich in the Championship next season. Earle said: "The team with it all on could well be Leeds United. Could well be Leeds United. Arsenal and Chelsea are their next two games, it's hard to see them getting any points.

"They'll go into the Brighton game, Brighton will have possession but they don't score goals which gives you nerves and then the last game of the season is against a Brentford team that are playing with real freedom. It's a worry."
Former Everton keeper Tim Howard added: "I actually can't believe I'm saying it, I think Leeds will enter the last day of the season in the bottom three and it's going to be really difficult for them to get out of it. I think the graphic there, I think Burnley could get something from Villa, they won't get anything from Tottenham, they could get something from Villa and Newcastle.
"Everton have a really nice run, Watford, Brentford, Palace - surely with the way they're playing - even Leicester next week, surely they'll think they can pick up a result there. As Robbie just said, I don't think Leeds get anything from Arsenal, anything from Chelsea, Brighton's a toss up and then they go into the final day of the season in the bottom three."
