Robbie Savage sticks with Leeds United relegation verdict following Crystal Palace thrashing

Robbie Savage has stuck with his pre-season prediction that Leeds United will be relegated from the Premier League.

Leeds currently sit two points outside of the bottom three after losing 5-1 against Crystal Palace at Elland Road last time out.

The Whites have collected three wins from seven games in the Premier League since Javi Gracia took charge in February, but Savage still expects them to face the drop.

“Southampton, then I’m going to go Leicester City. I think they would have had a better opportunity by keeping Brendan Rodgers.," told William Hill.

“I might be proven wrong, but I just think Leicester will join Southampton and then that last place is so tough to call.

“But Leeds United, 1-0 up at home to Crystal Palace concede just before half-time and then concede four in the second half.

“Losing 5-1 at home, when you’re fighting to stay up… I’m going to go Leeds United. Southampton, Leicester and Leeds United.”

Leeds welcome Liverpool to Elland Road on Monday night under the lights, and could move five points clear of danger with three points.
