Peterborough United 0-3 Leeds United highlights: Bamford stunner steals Ampadu headlines in FA Cup win

Leeds United and Daniel Farke visit Peterborough United in the FA Cup Third Round this weekend.

The Whites' recent record in this competition has not made for pleasant reading, particularly against lower league opponents. This afternoon's opposition are third in the League One table, one division below the Elland Road club, and will be keen to defeat Farke's men to progress to the next round.

Led by Darren Ferguson, son of former Manchester United boss Sir Alex, 'Posh' are unbeaten in their last ten outings across all competitions, while their most recent defeat in the league came in early November, proving today's contest will be no Sunday afternoon walk-in-the-park.

Farke is expected to make changes to his starting XI, although third-choice goalkeeper Kristoffer Klaesson will remain in the starting line-up as Illan Meslier serves the final match of a three-game suspension picked up on Boxing Day and Karl Darlow begins a seven-week lay-off with a dislocated thumb.

Kick-off at London Road is at 2pm. Build-up, team news, goal and score updates here throughout the day.
