forward to their Premier League return after racking up 100 points from 46 matches to win the Championship title last term.<\/p>\n<p>The Yorkshire side spent three years in the promised land in their most recent top-flight adventure before they suffered relegation in 2022-23, but they will hope this season is the start of a much longer journey in the Premier League.<\/p>\n<p><a

match will take place in front of the Sky Sports camera, having been moved to Monday, August 18, for an 8pm kick off.<\/p>\n<p>The Championship winners will recognise the importance of hitting the ground running, and they will be desperate to claim all three points against the Toffees, especially as they are will be roared on by a vociferous crowd at Elland Road.<\/p>\n<p><strong>December 30:
