It was a night to remember for Leeds United.

The Whites faced a toughed challenge as they welcomed Hull City to Elland Road, but as is the way with Marcelo Bielsa's side, they found a way to overcome the Tigers.

A 2-0 victory was enough to move Leeds to the top of the Championship table - for 24 hours at least - and extended their winning run to an impressive seven games.

The hope for Marcelo Bielsa's side will be to continue this run of form through the festive period in order to secure one of the automatic promotion spots.

Leeds will be determined that they don't want to fall into the lottery of the play-offs following their disappointment last term, but given their 11 point buffer on third place Fulham they'll no doubt be confident.

If the Whites are to secure promotion it's essential to battle for points even when not playing well, something which Leeds star Patrick Bamford was complimentary of in the 2-0 win over Hull City.

Taking to his Instagram story, Bamford simply posted: "Hard fought 3 points".

How much do you remember about Leeds United's season so far? Let's find out!

The verdict

It's hard to argue with Leeds United's promotion credentials.

The Whites and West Brom look to be a cut above the rest in the first half of the season, and given the strength of their squads it's hard to see them dropping enough points to tumble down the table.

Of course the Championship will take many twists and turns before May, but it's hard to see the automatic promotion spots changing hands.
