AliousPhil Hay suggests that Leeds United’s pressing game could serve as the decisive factor in their match against Southampton in the Championship play-off final at Wembley on Sunday (26 May).
Hay highlights the importance of effectively executing their pressing strategy against Southampton’s anticipated deep possession tactics.
Success in this aspect could provide Leeds with an advantage, while failure could present significant challenges.
Both teams are aiming to secure promotion to the Premier League after missing out on automatic promotion spots.
Despite Leeds potentially having the edge on paper, Southampton’s victories over them during the season have bolstered their confidence for the showdown.
Ultimately, the outcome of the game will hinge on the ability of the players to handle the pressure, as there is little to separate the two sides in terms of quality and previous encounters.
