Leeds United boss Javi Gracia is confident the fans are behind them in their relegation battle.

Leeds meet Leicester City tonight in a genuine six pointer at Elland Road.

Gracia said: "It is a very important game; a crucial point in the season. We are really focussed on it.

"There are six games left, all important. You never know where you can get points. But this is the next game, at home, we have to be focussed. Leicester are coming off a win. It will be a demanding game.

"We have the unconditional support of our fans so we feel really good. It will not be different this time."

On underfire goalkeeper Ilan Meslier, he added: "He's reacted well as usual. He always trains well' he's got great character and he's always looking to improve. We've concede a lot in recent games and we need to do better but it is not just about the keeper.

"If we defend better as a team, the keeper will look better."
