Leeds United have reached 43 points in the Premier League, a total that has historically secured survival from relegation.

Leeds United reached 43 points following recent Premier League fixtures. No club has suffered relegation from the division with such a total at the end of a season, per the Premier League. The result moved the club clear of the bottom three positions as the season enters its final stages.

Manager Daniel Farke said the recent form helped reduce anxiety within the squad. Leeds now sit in 15th place in the table, according to Sky Sports. The club holds an eight-point advantage over the relegation zone with three matches remaining in the current campaign.

Pressure increases on Everton and Nottingham Forest, who remain closer to the bottom three. Everton occupy 18th position with 33 points while Forest sit 17th with 34 points, per The Guardian. Leeds travel to face Manchester City in their next fixture on 4 May. The club requires one further point to guarantee its mathematical safety regardless of results elsewhere.
