Leeds face a trip to Preston North End at Deepdale on Tuesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Whites will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 12 and win only 5 of the 22 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in May 2006, as the visitors ran out cosy 0 - 2 winners in a Football League Play-Offs (Lvl 2) match.
