Leeds

The Whites currently stand as one of the frontrunners in this season's Championship. With 86 points from 41 matches, they hold the third position in the league table and are contending for direct promotion to the Premier League. Leeds trails the first and second-placed teams by two and one point respectively. In the final round, Leeds unexpectedly suffered a 1-2 defeat against Coventry, breaking their impressive six-game unbeaten streak.

Sunderland

The team sits in the middle of the Championship table. The Black Cats occupy the 13th position, having gathered 52 points from 41 matches. With five rounds remaining, they lag behind the playoff zone by 15 points, thereby risking losing any theoretical chances for a playoff spot in this match. In their previous game, they failed to secure a victory at home against Bristol City, resulting in a goalless draw. Furthermore, in their penultimate match, Sunderland suffered a 1-5 defeat against Blackburn. They've managed just one victory in their last five matches.
