One fixture of the newly released match schedule already jumps off the page for many, as the club hosts rivals Manchester United at Elland Road on 3 January; a date that carries significance among the fans.

The last time these two sides met on that date, Leeds booked a memorable 1-0 FA Cup third round upset win over the Red Devils thanks to a lone strike from Jermaine Beckford during the 2009/10 season.

Despite United fielding a side that included Wayne Rooney, Dimitar Berbatov, Danny Welbeck, and Gary Neville, with substitute appearances from Ryan Giggs, Michael Owen, and Antonio Valencia, Sir Alex Ferguson's men could not overcome Beckford's 19th-minute finish after getting on the end of Neil Kilkenny's long-ball.

Can Farke's men emulate that result when the time comes?
