The clash at Elland Road will now take place a day later than the original date, on Sunday April 28, with a noon kick-off. It will be broadcast live on Sky Sports.

The game is the penultimate of the campaign for both clubs and the outcome could have big ramifications both in the promotion and play-off race.

Leeds currently sit second in the table, while Villa are sixth following a run of five straight wins.

The first meeting between the clubs at Villa Park back in December remains one of the games of the season.

Leeds won it 3-2 thanks to Kemar Roofe’s stoppage time winner, having fought back from two goals down.
