Leeds United
Leeds United are one of England’s historic football clubs, enjoying trophy-laden success in the 1960s and 70s under Don Revie. In recent times, the Whites have suffered a well-documented decline – falling out of the top-flight in 2004 amid significant turmoil on and off the pitch. Nonetheless, the Championship side remain the best supported team in the division, with attendances of over 30,000 every week – more than a number of Premier League teams. They have enjoyed a storming start to the season, winning plaudits for their high-pressing, attacking style of play under the enigmatic Marcelo Bielsa. It is therefore a great time to get down and watch a game at Elland Road, with a long overdue promotion charge very much on the cards. Concession tickets start at £21.
Upcoming Fixtures: Brentford 6/10
Leeds Rhinos
The Rhinos are one of the best Rugby League teams in the country. 2017 was a fantastic year for the team, as Leeds won a record-breaking eighth Super League crown, beating Castleford Tigers at Old Trafford in the Grand Final. This success was all the more remarkable after a disastrous campaign the year before, where the Rhinos struggled to repeat previous treble success, losing 18 games. Playing their games at Headingley Stadium, they are just a stone’s throw away from student accommodation and often have great student deals, with concession tickets starting at £13.
Upcoming fixtures: Toronto Wolfpack 28/09
