Preview: Stoke City vs Leeds United | OneFootball

Leeds United travel to the bet365 Stadium to face Stoke City on Boxing Day, with action getting underway at 8pm.

The Whites go into the tie in fine form, having dismantled Oxford United 4-0 last time out at Elland Road.

Dan James’ close-range strike got Leeds off to the perfect start early on, before goals from Jayden Bogle, Brenden Aaronson and Manor Solomon completed the rout after the break.

Daniel Farke’s side sit second in the Sky Bet Championship standings having picked up 45 points from their opening 22 matches, three points adrift of table-topping Sheffield United.

Stoke, meanwhile, find themselves in 19th having endured a tricky spell of form and will be looking to climb away from the relegation zone.

Most recently, Narcís Pelach's Potters fell to a 2-0 defeat against Sheffield Wednesday away from home.

Action from the bet365 Stadium gets underway at 8pm.
