Leeds and Norwich team news, 14 out, two doubts, two back for FA Cup tie | OneFootball

Leeds United host Norwich City in the FA Cup fifth round at Elland Road on Sunday, kick-off 4.30pm. According to yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk, 14 players are out, with two more doubtful and two back.

The tie caps a demanding week for Daniel Farke’s side after 1-0 home defeats by Manchester City on Saturday and Sunderland on Tuesday. Norwich sit 17th in the Championship, 11 points above the drop zone and 12 off the play-offs, yet have won 10 of their last 15 league games under Philippe Clement.

Norwich now face Premier League opposition for the first time this season.

Back for Leeds, James Justin required stitches after the Manchester City match and was withdrawn with three minutes remaining, yet started against Sunderland and played 74 minutes. Joe Rodon, who had a hamstring issue late against City, started on Tuesday and completed the match.

Norwich are without Mohamed Toure for four to six weeks after a groin injury in the 2-0 win over Sheffield Wednesday. Oscar Schwartau faces weeks out with a hamstring problem from the West Brom cup win, though Philippe Clement said he is already running. Matej Jurasek is about six to seven weeks away with a foot injury, while Jovon Makama is expected to miss most of the run-in with a foot problem.
