The Whites visited Deepdale on Boxing Day in 2016 and in 2019, avoiding defeat to the Lilywhites in both fixtures. A repeat of 2016’s win would certainly be welcomed by the travelling Leeds fans, who will have high expectations after the 4-0 win over Ipswich Town.

A victory would keep the pressure on Ipswich, who still sit second despite their heavy defeat at Elland Road. Leicester City remain top of the tree at Christmas, although Leeds fans will be hoping the high-flying Foxes falter.

Preston’s form has been in decline since they made a promising start to the Championship season. Leeds will be heading into the tie as favourites and here is how fans without a ticket can watch.
