Leeds United learn festive Championship schedule with trio of games moved for TV

Over the Christmas period, Leeds United has been chosen for live broadcast on Sky Sports in three games. This selection reflects the broadcasters’ keen interest in Leeds’ performance during the festive season as the Championship campaign intensifies. One of the highlighted matches is Leeds’ face-off against Ipswich Town on December 23, featuring two of the top three teams in the Championship. The anticipation is high, suggesting that both teams will strive to deliver a memorable Christmas present to their respective supporters.

The Elland Road clash on December 23 will maintain its Saturday slot but with an earlier kick-off time at 12.30pm. Additionally, Leeds’ Boxing Day match against Preston North End at Deepdale will be televised, also kicking off at 12.30pm. This might pose an early morning challenge for fans traveling across the Pennines the day after Christmas. The third televised game is Leeds’ encounter with West Bromwich Albion on December 29, with the match at The Hawthorns starting at 8.15pm.

These selections ensure that fans can catch the action in Leeds’ final three games of the year, providing an opportunity to witness Daniel Farke’s team gaining momentum. Leeds has been a popular choice for broadcasters throughout the season, and this trend continues with televised matches against Rotherham United and Sunderland at the Stadium of Light later this month.
