Leeds United 3-1 for top-half finish after promotion to the Premier League

Leeds are 3-1 with bet365 to claim a top-half finish in next season's Premier League after they secured promotion from the Sky Bet Championship on Friday night.

The Whites saw their 16-year absence from the top flight end when struggling Huddersfield stunned West Brom 2-1 to leave the second-placed Baggies five points in arrears with just one game remaining.

Marcelo Bielsa's side may take heart from Sheffield United's performances after they were promoted last season.

The Blades are still hunting a place in the top six and bet365 offer 33-1 that Leeds will be able to secure such a berth next term.

The firm go 25-1 that Leeds, who were champions in the final year of the First Division in 1992, will finish above Manchester United while Betway have them at 750-1 to win the title.

They are 100-1 to claim a place in the top four while bet365 offer 7-2 that their stay will last only one season.

Leeds travel to Derby on Sunday looking for their 13th away win of the season before completing their campaign at Elland Road against Charlton on Wednesday.
