Daniel Farke's side will be looking to end their three-match losing streak on the road in the Championship after a difficult festive period against Sunderland, Preston North End and West Bromwich Albion.

The Whites were back to winning ways against Birmingham City on New Year's Day, although that was at fortress Elland Road where the team remain unbeaten this season. A 3-0 away triumph over Peterborough United in the FA Cup Third Round last weekend will give Farke and his squad hope that their recent away form is merely a blip and not a pattern emerging.
