Contest between Leeds United x Preston North End is shaping up to be one of those spectacles where recent results gets out the window. Starting
Leeds United’s been erratic, their showings yo-yoing from brilliant to head-scratching. Meanwhile, Preston North End’s scrapping through a tough stretch, their rearguard looking shaky.
