22 December 2007 sees Rovers travel north to Yorkshire for the second consecutive weekend, this time to play Leeds United, having played Huddersfield Town the previous week. It is only Rovers' seventh visit to Elland Road, and they have yet to win there. It will be the 19th league game of the 2007-08 season.

Leeds United v Bristol Rovers[]

Going into this game, Rovers were 19th in the League 1 table, with Leeds in 5th place. However, if Leeds hadn't been given a 15-point penalty at the start of the season they would have been eleven points clear at the top of the league, which gives a good idea of the superiority Leeds have enjoyed over the rest of the teams in League 1 during the 2007-08 season.
