Leeds United will be bidding to to extend their lead at the top of the Championship when they make the short trip to Hull City. A jam-packed festive schedule has tested the strength and depth of the Whites' squad.

But Daniel Farke's men have acquitted themselves well over the holiday season, accruing seven points from matches against Stoke City, Derby County and Blackburn Rovers to pull clear at the top of the league. They effectively got away with dropping two points on New Year's Day as closest rivals Burnley were held by Stoke City and Sheffield United slipped up at Sunderland.

The Whites will be looking to return to winning ways against the third-from-bottom Tigers, who have won just twice in their own backyard this term. Here is everything you need to know about United's first away match of the calendar year:
