Leeds prepare to entertain Walsall at Elland Road on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The majority of those games have been won by the Whites.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Elland Road was less than a year ago, in March 2008, with Leeds running out comfortable 2-0 winners in a League One match.
