Leeds play host to Bristol Rovers at Elland Road on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. Of the 6 previous meetings, 3 have been drawn, and 3 won by the Whites.
The last time the two teams met at Elland Road was way back in the black-and-white days of January 1972, when they eased past their opponents in a high-scoring 4-1 thriller, in a F.A. Cup match.
