Despite a 2-1 defeat to Everton in the latest midweek round of Premier League fixtures, Leeds United actually found themselves better off in the table.
Southampton's 9-0 defeat across the Pennines saw the Saints sink below Leeds on goal difference and leaves Marcelo Bielsa's side sitting pretty in 11th place on 29 points having played 21 games.
Survival is the main objective for any newly promoted team and while Leeds will not count their chickens before time, the Whites are in a very commanding position, sitting seven spots and 15 points ahead of the bottom three.
The conventional wisdom is that you need 40 points to avoid the drop, but over the past ten season the league's 18th place finishers have earned just 35.1 points on average.
By that logic, Leeds could be safe in three games' time.
Whites fans know it is unlikely to be that straightforward however after years of being conditioned to the club's regular ups and downs, but how do the club's upcoming fixtures stack up and where will their next points come from?
