Two Yorkshire sides looking to put midweek disappointments behind them clash this weekend.

Leeds United and Huddersfield Town both suffered losses through the week, with the latter falling to a particularly dismal defeat.

Leeds’ loss was not quite as severe but Patrick Bamford’s penalty miss in the 1-0 defeat to Stoke City left a sour taste.

However, focus will now be firmly fixed on the weekend as Elland Road prepares to play host to a Yorkshire derby.

There have been some memorable battles between Leeds and Huddersfield, although the clubs have not met since before the first Covid-19 lockdown.

March 7, 2020, was the date of their last encounter and Leeds came out on top courtesy of strikes from Luke Ayling and Bamford.
