Albion’s potential promotion six-pointer against Leeds has been chosen for live TV coverage.

But the screening on Sky Sports will not affect the date of the fixture.

The Seagulls’ showdown at Elland Road remains on Saturday, March 18, with kick-off pushed back to 5.30pm.

Leeds have emerged as arguably the most dangerous challengers to the current top two by taking 16 points from their last six games as excitement grows around Elland Road.

They are six points behind second-placed Albion, who have a superior goal difference and a game in hand.
