Leeds United boss Simon Grayson is targeting automatic promotion for the club this season.

Simon Grayson is confident that his Leeds United side can achieve automatic promotion from the Championship this season.

The Yorkshire club currently sit in seventh place in the table, the same position they ended last season as they narrowly missed out on the playoffs.

However, Grayson is targeting a top-two finish this campaign and a return to the Premier League for the first time since 2004.

"We are where we want to be and we are looking to go higher," he said on the club's official website.

"I still think we can finish in the top two and when people write us off we come back in a positive manner."

Leeds beat managerless Leicester 1-0 at the King Power Stadium on Sunday.
