Leeds United are set to be shown live in front of the TV cameras once over the Christmas period. The Whites' home clash with Manchester City, originally set for Boxing Day, is now set to kick off at 8pm on Wednesday 28 December at 8pm and will be screened by Amazon Prime.
That game is set to be Leeds' first in six weeks following the World Cup break and could provide Kalvin Phillips with his first opportunity to play at Elland Road since his summer move from Manchester City. Phillips has hardly played due to injury for his new club but is hoping to be fit for the tournament in Qatar after undergoing surgery on his shoulder.
Leeds' home match with West Ham United has also been moved in order to protect rest periods in between rounds of fixtures. Initially, the clash with the Hammers was pencilled in for Monday 2 January but has now been put back an extra 48 hours to Wednesday 4 January.

It has also been handed a new kick off time of 7.45pm but will not be shown live on TV. In between those two matches over the Christmas period is Leeds' New Year's Eve trip to Newcastle United, which has not been moved for selection and is still set to kick off at 3pm.
