Why a job's still to be done after winning promotion

Delighted United fans hungry for title glory

Primary objective achieved and, in some style, so now we move on to the icing on the cake-the title.
And Leeds deserve the icing as they are clearly the best team in the league on their day and, indeed, on most days.
So Leeds must overcome a Bristol City side that has recently been in good form and not quite assured of a play-off slot, so both sides have plenty at stake.
This should make for an interesting game. Whilst last time out Stoke gave little resistance, Leeds were fantastic and, with the 'burden' of promotion lifted, I expect Leeds to be full of confidence this evening.
Injured players have been more than adequately replaced and I cannot see Daniel Farke changing a winning side-even if Dan James is fully fit.
Through necessity or luxury, all available substitutes will be used.
The atmosphere should be electric again and the team will want (and deserve) to leave Elland Road for the last time this season with the victory chimes of The Kaiser Chiefs and Joy Division ringing in their ears.
Prediction: Leeds United 2 Bristol City 0.
They may have to be perfect against two sides still fighting battles

With promotion secured and the jeopardy gone, we can all sit back and enjoy the final two games of the season, can't we? Not according to Leeds United captain Ethan Ampadu.
In the style of a true captain, he isn't letting his players take their feet off the gas as he leads them in search of the Championship title.
Leeds ended up winning it at a canter last time with the team perhaps still feeling the effects of a week-long promotion party.
This time, they need to better the results of their rivals from across the Pennines.
