Leeds drops out of top two after draw at Luton
Leeds United dropped out of the automatic promotion places in the EFL Championship after a 1-1 draw away to relegation-threatened Luton Town.
The result means it is one win in six for Leeds, which must now rely on results elsewhere in its final six matches of the season if it is to earn automatic promotion.
Having replaced struggling goalkeeper Illan Meslier with Karl Darlow in the starting XI, Daniel Farke's side fell behind to its lowly host in the first half with Isaiah Jones netting a back-post volley after good work from Elijah Adebayo and Jordan Clark.
Leeds was level within 13 minutes of the opening goal after Dan James curled in a left-footed finish after a corner had been cleared as far as him.
With pressure growing, in part owing to scores elsewhere, Leeds failed to take the initiative as the game wore on and stand-in goalkeeper Darlow was required to make a couple of saves to keep it level.
But neither side was able to make a telling contribution, with both taking a point.
