SEAT ALLOCATION
Away fans are housed in the stand named after Swansea-born Welsh football legend John Charles and are located in the upper tier towards the south stand.
Seating in this stand is mixed, with some supporting pillars in place meaning some views are restricted.
MATCH SPECIFIC
Saturday's match marks the 25th anniversary of the tragic events in Turkey which led to two Leeds United supporters, Chris Loftus and Kevin Speight, losing their lives. There will be a minute's applause pre-match to remember them.
The match will also be in support of Red Bull's 'Wings for Life World Run' campaign.
CASHLESS STADIUM
Elland Road is a cashless stadium and only card payments will be accepted at food and drink outlets inside the stadium.
The exception is for matchday programmes, which can only be purchased with cash.
FLAGS & BANNERS
Visiting fans are welcome to bring flags to Elland Road providing they have the correct certificates.
Small handheld banners and flags will be allowed through the turnstiles and will be checked by the stewards on entry - any flags that are deemed to contain offensive content will be confiscated.
Larger flags (one metre) will need to be pre-authorised by the club in order to comply with ground health and safety regulations. No poles will be allowed inside the stands at Elland Road.
Any flag over the dimensions of 5ft by 3ft would be classed as an extra-large flag and these must strictly be agreed in advance with the club and will be stored at Elland Road. Also any flags which are on a wooden pole are not permitted to be brought in to Elland Road.
Any flags over 1x1metre in size must carry a fire-rated certificate.

TRAVELLING BY TRAIN
It takes approximately six-and-a-half hours to travel to Leeds from Swansea train station. This includes at least one change.
Trains leaving at approximately 7.30am on matchday are due to arrive at around 2pm. Leeds Railway Station is 35 minutes from Elland Road and most people prefer to use a taxi or shuttle bus to make the journey.
Supporters wishing to travel by train should plan well in advance and keep checking for changes to the route.
SUPPORTER COACHES
Coach travel for this game has sold out. Thank you for your support, Jack Army.
Swansea City is disappointed to report that, after several instances of anti-social behaviour on coach travel this season, there will be increased security measures in place and, as a result, additional costs to the club.
The club is investigating a number of incidents and any supporters who have witnessed any anti-social behaviour can report this anonymously to support@swanseacity.com. As a result of the increased security costs, the club has taken the decision to increase the price of coach travel.
The club does not make any profit from coach travel and will continue to review security for coach travel, with the aim of safely reducing security measures and associated costs in future matches.
Supporters under the age of 16 will be refused entry if they try to access away travel unaccompanied. Supporters using the coach service are reminded that, in line with traffic commissioner guidelines, strictly no alcohol can be brought on board the coaches.
Supporters who do not adhere to this rule, or partake in other instances of anti-social behaviour, run the risk of the coaches being turned around and the club will look to impose a home and away fixture ban for the remainder of this season.
NEARBY PUBS
Leeds United has an away fan zone which is near the away turnstiles in the West Stand car park and cordoned off for away supporters to access. A selection of food and drink (alcoholic and non alcoholic) is available.
It opens two hours prior to kick off and can also be accessed at half-time.
