Leeds United U21 face Newcastle United U21 at LNER Community Stadium, York, North Yorkshire today at 1:30 PM in a basement battle that neither side can afford to lose.

Leeds United U21 come into this fixture in mixed form (1W 1D 1L). Newcastle United U21 travel out of form (0W 2L recently), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.
