Leeds United v Blackburn Rovers live: Updates and analysis from Elland Road, TV details, new Sheffield United chance

Leeds are entering the new year sitting two points clear of the second-placed Blades at the top of the division and Chris Wilder’s side must wait until 8pm before taking in their New Year’s Day fixture at fourth-placed Sunderland. It means Daniel Farke’s Whites can establish a five-point gap to their Sheffield rivals, albeit having played a game more, with a victory from this afternoon’s visit of fifth-placed Blackburn.

Here we will bring you all of the pre-match build-up followed by in-game updates and analysis before post-match reaction. The 3pm kick-off is being broadcast live on Sky Sports Plus.
