Match Facts
Leeds United have only lost one of their last 11 league home matches against Preston (W6 D4), losing 6-4 in September 2010 with Jon Parkin scoring a hat-trick for the visitors.
Preston North End are looking for their first league double over Leeds since the 1957-58 top-flight season.
Leeds United are the only side in the Championship this season who have avoided defeat at home (W9 D4); they last went unbeaten in their first 14 home league games of a season in 2009-10 in League One.
Preston have lost six of their last nine league games away from home (W2 D1), while overall in 2023-24, only Rotherham (17), Hull and Sheffield Wednesday (both 16) have conceded the opening goal in more Championship games than the Lilywhites (15).
Leeds’ Georginio Rutter (goal) and Crysencio Summerville (assist) combined for the sixth time in the Championship this season, more than any other pair. Indeed, they’ve created 39 chances for one another (Rutter - 20, Summerville - 19), only Finn Azaz and Morgan Whittaker have done so more times in the competition in 2023-24 (40).
