Norwich v Leeds United: Match preview, head-to-heads and betting odds

City will be aiming to reach the FA Cup quarter-finals for the first time in six years when they take on Leeds United at Elland Road on Sunday.

With 10 wins in all competitions since the turn of the year and off the back of that impressive 2-0 win away at Leicester, Norwich go into Sunday’s match as one of the EFL’s in-form sides.

The Canaries’ red-hot form comes amid yet another injury crisis, with 14 first-team players currently sidelined.

Clement is down to just one available striker in Mathias Kvistgaarden, with centre back Jakov Medic and youth product Errol Mundle-Smith sharing the load in recent matches.

Norwich will be eyeing a first victory over former boss Daniel Farke since he left the club in 2021, having lost four and drawn two games against the German during his time in Yorkshire.

Leeds go into Sunday’s match on the back of two Elland Road losses, leaving them just six points above the drop zone.

The Whites last made the FA Cup quarter-finals in 2003, ultimately losing to Sheffield United.

Farke’s side progressed through to the fifth round after winning on penalties against Birmingham City, while Norwich recorded a comfortable 3-1 home win against West Bromwich Albion.

Daniel’s betting prediction

As you’d expect when a Premier League side faces a team from the Championship, Leeds are odds-on favourites to win the tie at 10/21, according to OddsChecker.

An away win currently sits at 13/2, with a draw at 19/5.

On the back of two home losses, Farke could certainly field a strong side to provide some much needed momentum.

Norwich are in good form, but I can see the trip to Elland Road being a step too far.

I’m going with a 1-0 Leeds win.
