Leeds United held their end-of-season awards yesterday night, with the entire squad in attendance, including out-on-loan Luke Ayling. Leeds are preparing for an important match against Middlesbrough on Monday, knowing that a victory will be required to get back on track.

Chris Sutton has revealed his prediction for the Premier League match between Everton and Nottingham Forest on Sunday, April 21. The Toffees have won only one of their past 15 games and were thrashed 6-0 by Chelsea in their most recent outing, while Forest have won only one of their last nine games, with both clubs fighting for relegation after receiving points punishments for exceeding PSR limitations.

Speaking on the latest episode of Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast, the 66-year-old, who was CEO at Goodison Park from 2004 to 2009 and now runs a football consultancy advising elite clubs, suggested the Midlands club’s arguments would not be strong enough to overturn the original verdict.

Wyness has…

With six games remaining, his team is two points above the relegation zone. The Toffees and Nuno Espirito Santo’s side are separated by only one point, therefore a victory in this six-pointer will be critical in the relegation struggle. Carragher, a Sky Sports commentator, predicted on Super 6 (19 April) that Everton will win a critical 1-0 home game against Forest. Everton’s win over Nottingham Forest might be key.…

On Thursday (18 April), the football finance expert tweeted that the Whites and 18 other past FA Cup winners had been “ignored” by the governing body after it was decided that replays in the cup would be phased out beginning with the first round.
