Leeds United take on Nottingham Forest this weekend in the Sky Bet Championship as they look to get a huge three points at the City Ground.
The Whites have been great at times this season but, as fans appear to be fearing, they are tailing off at the wrong time and Forest now have the chance to really turn up the heat on them this weekend.
It’s a huge game for both, then, and Whites fans are going to be keen to see their side put in a performance that underlines their credentials as promotion winners and the best side in the league.
Tyler Roberts clearly feels as though they are the best in the division at the moment, too:
"All of the boys know we are the best team in the Championship and we deserve to go up."

Naturally, these comments have got fans talking with the attacker being fairly bold in what he has had to say about his team-mates.
Let’s take a look at what has been said:
Earn it. Nobody 'deserves' anything

This might be true. But football doesn't always reward the best team ! Points win promotion not words Mr. Roberts. Go out there and fight for them !
