In a top-of-the-table clash in the EFL Championship, league leaders Leicester City travel to Elland Road to face second-placed Leeds United.
Leeds United are nine points adrift of the pinnacle of England's second division as they'll be vying to mount pressure on the away side with all three points at home. The Whites haven't lost a contest in the EFL Championship since the turn of the year as they look to continue this winning momentum.
Leicester City's remarkable run of four wins on the bounce ended as the Foxes lost to Middlesbrough 2-1 during their previous outing. Despite their defeat, the former Premier League champions are still seeded at the summit of the table and would be looking to extend this gap.
