Pre-season

How the warm-ups are going

The friendly results so far, before the league gets going. It steps aside once the real games begin on 21 August.

The 2026/27 season

Survival is banked, and now Leeds want to kick on.

Leeds came straight back up as 2024/25 Championship winners and settled into a comfortable 14th on 47 points under Daniel Farke. Ethan Ampadu has signed a new long-term deal and stays as captain, and a quiet summer has added Harry Wilson and Tarik Muharemovic while Pascal Struijk moved on. The 2026/27 season has not kicked off yet, so every figure below still reads zero.

The countdown runs to the provisional 15:00 BST kickoff at the City Ground. The exact time and the broadcast pick are still to be confirmed.

How the season back went

Leeds spent 2025/26 proving they belonged, and 14th on 47 points was a settled return to the top flight after winning the 2024/25 Championship. Daniel Farke's side scored 49 and conceded 56 across the 38 games.

Team news

Injuries, suspensions and the confirmed eleven

It is pre-season, the 2026/27 campaign has not kicked off, and there is no honest team news to report yet. Confirmed lineups and any fitness or suspension calls land about an hour before kickoff, and this is where they will appear once they do.

The 2026/27 season

The 2026/27 Premier League season has not started yet, so every figure here is honestly zero. Leeds open away at Nottingham Forest on Saturday 22 August, and this page begins counting for real from that first whistle. Nothing below is a projection or a stand-in result.

These are Leeds' well-documented all-time records, the kind set into the club's history rather than any single season. Where a figure is not firmly established it is left out here rather than guessed at.

Honours

The trophy cabinet

Leeds United's major honours in the men's senior game, with the three top-flight titles at the heart of the collection. Almost all of it was won during Don Revie's golden era, and the counts and years below are the club's well established ones.

3 English top-flight titles 1968-69, 1973-74 and 1991-92
1 FA Cup Won in 1972 against Arsenal
1 League Cup Won in 1968 against Arsenal
2 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup Won in 1968 and 1971 (an early European competition)
2 FA Charity Shield Won in 1969 and 1992
5 Second-tier titles 1923-24, 1963-64, 1989-90, 2019-20 and 2024-25

Beyond the trophies, three of the club's proudest moments came without a winner's medal. They are a real part of the Leeds story and worth setting down honestly.
