Leeds hit back in the second half when Naylor's header is saved and Bradley Johnson smashes home before Luciano Becchio scores from close range to make it 2-1.

Leeds score first and last at Oakwell but are torn apart in the Yorkshire derby.

O'Brien, Arismendi, a Collins own goal and Hammill make it 5-1. Shane Higgs produces some fine saves to deny Hammill and Butterfield before Somma's consolation.

Simon Grayson rings the changes after the horror show on Tuesday night as Leeds take a point from the Keepmoat Stadium. An entertaining game sees both sides hit the woodwork during the first half and Somma has an effort ruled out for offside with 15 minutes remaining.

Referee: A. Taylor
A disappointing game comes to life in the closing stages as Leeds return to winning ways. Bradley Johnson settles a game of few chances with seven minutes to go but both sides finish with ten men. Snodgrass is sent off for two bookings after coming on to replace Lloyd Sam and Blades sub Jamie Ward also sees red for a reckless tackle on Neil Kilkenny. The visitors come close to an equaliser in injury time when Johnny Ertl's header hits the woodwork.

Unused subs: Arestidou, McLaughlin, Wright, Parry, Mayor
Referee: N. Miller
Leeds throw away a 4-1 lead and lose 4-6 in one of the most bizarre games ever seen at Elland Road. Jon Parkin gives Preston an early lead before headers from Luciano Becchio and Alex Bruce put Leeds in front. David Somma scores a brace but Parkin grabs another as Leeds go in at half time with a 4-2 lead. In an even crazier second half, Keith Treacy scores direct from a corner and Callum Davidson levels from the spot after Bruce brings down Iain Hulme. Preston then take the lead when Parkin completes his hat-trick and Hulme heads a sixth to complete a remarkable comeback.

Once again Simon Grayson makes changes but Leeds lose in East Anglia. Jason Scotland rounds Shane Higgs to score the opener and then misses a glorious chance to make it 2-0. Higgs goes off injured and is replaced by Jason Brown who makes his Leeds debut. Robert Snodgrass levels but then Alex Bruce sees red before Tommy Smith is left unmarked to convert a Carlos Edwards cross to win the game for the home side.

Referee: C. Foy
Luciano Becchio scores a stunning winner ten minutes after Kris Boyd pulls the hosts level. Davide Somma converts a deflected Sanchez Watt cross to give Leeds a deserved lead.
