Leeds United are set to take on Norwich City at Elland Road on Saturday, and a sell out crowd is expected.
Leeds United boss Garry Monk has told BBC Radio Leeds that he has been using the fact his side’s match against Norwich City is a sell out as motivation.
Leeds are expecting one of their biggest crowds of the season on Saturday at Elland Road.
And Monk believes that the ticket sales prove that Leeds fans have not given up believing in their team, despite a dip in form recently.
“I think there’s 37,000+ that are going to be there,” Monk said.
“I said to the players, that the reason that they’re there is because they believe in them. They believe there’s a chance.
“That’s credit to the players. They have given these loyal fans something to believe in.”
Leeds simply have to beat Norwich this weekend, if they are to keep their play off hopes alive.
The Whites have been in the top six for most the season, but a poor sequence of results has struck at the work possible time.
Leeds have won just two of their last nine matches, and their promotion hopes are now dangling by a thread.
Monk’s men are now three points outside the top six, with just two games remaining.
Leeds need either Fulham or Sheffield Wednesday to slip up this weekend, otherwise their play off hopes will be effectively over heading into the last match of the season.
