It is a massive challenge facing Leeds on the final day of the season, knowing that their fate is out of their own hands.
Not only do the Yorkshire side rely upon Burnley slipping up, but they must also get something against an in-form Brentford team who are finishing the season extremely well.
A victory could see the Bees secure a top-half finish in their first ever Premier League season and Thomas Frank's men will surely be motivated on Sunday afternoon.
