Leeds have not lost any of their opening games in the Premier League era when they have begun at home winning five of eight.

"It's crucial to have a good home record," said manager Farke ahead of tonight's curtain-raiser against Everton. “We've made Elland Road a fortress.

“We know it will be more difficult than in the Championship but we have a great unity within the club and bond with our supporters. We will need them during difficult times.”
