Daniel Farke returns to the home of his former employers a week on Sunday as Leeds take on David Wagner's Canaries at 12:30pm on May 12 at Carrow Road. That is before Farke welcomes Norwich to Elland Road for the second time this season, on Thursday May 16, for an 8pm kick-off. A statement released on Leeds' website with regards to the away leg confirmed tickets would go on sale online at 1pm on Monday, May 6 to Super Away Attendees and Away Season Ticket Holders not already enrolled on the Away...
Southampton may have little to play for this weekend but they're determined to ‘stamp their authority’ and put a 'dent' in Leeds United ahead of the play-offs. That's according to loanee David Brooks, who has high hopes of adding a second promotion to the Premier League to his CV, having made the step up with parent club Bournemouth previously. Russell Martin's side have seen form desert them in recent weeks and they travel to Elland Road on the back of losses to Cardiff City, Leicester City...
Tomorrow lunchtime Leeds will take to the field against Southampton in what many could foresee as being a dress rehearsal for the end-of-season Championship play-off final. The two sides have fallen short of the automatic promotion places, despite accruing 90 and 84 points, respectively, and will almost certainly contest the play-offs against sides finish fifth and sixth in the league table. Martin has vowed to field 6ft 2in striker Ross Stewart who has missed practically the entire season...
Hosts Catalans Dragons say around 700 Rhinos fans have bought tickets for the big Betfred Super League showdown at Stade Gilbert Brutus. It is the earliest in the season Leeds have visited France since 2019 and Rhinos will be aiming for a home and away double following a hard-fought 18-10 win at AMT Headingley in March. The healthy ticket sales are despite last year’s disastrous trip when Rhinos were hammered 61-0 and some fans were stranded for an extra day in the south of France after their...
Leeds United know they must make history and win the play-offs if they are to achieve promotion from the Championship this season. Daniel Farke’s men slipped up when it mattered most and Saturday’s 2-1 defeat at home to Southampton consigned them to third-place. United now face the prospect of a two-legged semi-final against sixth-place Norwich City - Farke’s former side - with victory setting up a trip to Wembley and a final against one of the Saints or West Brom. It’s not the way any Whites...
For months the last game of the season at home to Southampton had the potential to be massive, season-defining even. By the time it arrived it held no more than a smidgen of potential for the miraculous. Even for the most optimistic of Whites, the potential of underwhelm was overwhelming. Prayers were being said in Tokyo, while at Elland Road itself the atmosphere was weird. When only a miracle would do and when the worst case scenario was still a chance at glory, it was understandable that no...
The Whites, whose Under 18s will face Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on Friday May 10, were given an initial allocation of 5,032 which was quickly snaffled by supporters. More than 3,000 sold inside the first two hours with members and season ticket holders exercising their right to secure tickets. Now Leeds have been given a further allocation of 1,484 tickets, ahead of general sale opening up at 1pm on Tuesday April 30, meaning Rob Etherington’s side could be backed on the day by around...
Former Leeds United goalkeeper Joel Robles is celebrating promotion after helping Al-Qadsiah out of the Saudi Arabian second tier. Robles signed a deal with Al-Qasiah last summer, with the club being coached by former Leeds striker Robbie Fowler at the time, and in doing so turned down the chance to train with Leeds following the expiration of his Elland Road contract. It's fair to say that decision has more than paid off for him with the Spaniard helping the club to claim a spot in the Saudi...
Leeds United will now be preparing for the Championship play-offs after missing out on automatic promotion last week. Daniel Farke’s side lost 2-1 at home to Southampton on the final day, with Ipswich Town beating Huddersfield to join Leicester City in the top two. The Whites will now face sixth-placed Norwich City in the semi-finals, with victory setting up a final at Wembley with one of Southampton or West Bromwich Albion. It’s set to be a tight and tense battle for Premier League football and...
Southampton boss Russell Martin expects to see forward Ross Stewart return to fitness in time for next week's trip to Leeds United. The Saints have been forced to settle for a spot in the Championship play-offs this season with a run of three straight defeats, culminating in Saturday's 1-0 loss at home to Stoke City, ruling them out of automatic promotion contention. However, they still have to travel to Leeds next week and while they will have little to play for, they'll still be keen to head...
The Dons fell to a 3-0 defeat against Crawley Town in their opening leg play-off semi-final, leaving Bate, Dean and co with a mountain to climb in the return fixture at Stadium:mk on Saturday, May 11. Bate is currently on loan at the fourth tier outfit but is expected to depart Elland Road for good this summer after a three-year spell with the club, while ex-Everton youngster Dean left in a permanent switch during the January 2023 transfer window. Both players have played an integral role in the...
The 27-year-old reportedly has an option in his initial season-long loan deal that permits Real Betis to extend Roca's stay at Estadio Benito Villamarin automatically and at no additional cost, should Leeds fail to be promoted this season. Roca departed Elland Road last summer after one season in West Yorkshire but remains contracted to the club until 2026. The player has previously disclosed his preference to remain in LaLiga and his best chance of doing so appears to be if Leeds do not go up....
