Leeds United are preparing for another Championship campaign after they failed to secure an immediate return to the Premier League last season.

After finishing in third position, Daniel Farke’s side went on to beat Norwich City in the playoff semi-finals before their promotion dreams were shattered by a final defeat to Southampton.

Since losing at Wembley, Leeds have seen several players head through the exit door, including Archie Gray, Glen Kamara and most recently Crysencio Summerville.

However, they made four additions of their own, recruiting Joe Rothwell, Alex Cairns, Jayden Bogle and Joe Rodon, with the latter joining on a permanent deal after spending last season on loan from Tottenham Hotspur.

The Whites recently wrapped up their pre-season schedule with a 2-1 victory over Valencia at Elland Road, ensuring they will be in a confident mood ahead of their first encounter with Portsmouth since February 2012.

Leeds were one of the standout performers on home turf last season after they won 16, drew five and lost just two of their 23 league matches at Elland Road to finish the campaign with the second-best home record in the division.

Meanwhile, Portsmouth are set to compete in the Championship for the first time in 12 years after they proved to be a cut above the rest in League One last season.

The South Coast outfit won 28, drew 13 and lost five of their 46 matches to finish as League One champions with 97 points to their name.

Ahead of his first Championship campaign as manager, John Mousinho has boosted his squad with the additions of Jordan Williams, Josh Murphy, Jacob Farrell, Sam Silvera, Jordan Archer, Elias Sorensen and Andre Dozzell.

Portsmouth have also announced the return of academy product Matt Richie, who signed a two-year contract following his departure from Newcastle United earlier this summer.

Dozzell and Richie were signed after Portsmouth completed their pre-season schedule with a disappointing 2-0 defeat to Charlton Athletic at The Valley.
