Leeds United host Blackburn Rovers on Wednesday aiming to maintain their place at the top of the Championship.

Marcelo Biela’s side head into the game on the back of a thrilling 3-2 victory at Aston Villa over the weekend.

Sky Sports’ pundit David Prutton was impressed with the performance and has tipped Leeds to follow up with a 2-1 victory over Rovers (15/2 with Sky Bet).

“What a comeback from Leeds at Villa Park on Sunday,” he said.

“From two goals down they wrestled the game back and put themselves top on Christmas Day thanks to that last-gasp Kemar Roofe strike.

“Blackburn’s season has tailed off a little and while they shouldn’t drift too close to the relegation zone, it appears that a play-off push will be beyond them. Leeds win for me.”

Leeds were beaten 2-1 at Ewood Park back in October and they will be gunning for revenge back on home soil.

The Whites are priced at 8/13 to win the game, with Rovers on offer at 17/4 and the draw available at 3/1
