Leeds United vs Norwich City Head-To-Head

Leeds United host Norwich City at Elland Road on Thursday for the second leg of their EFL Championship promotion playoffs, with the tie finely poised following their draw in the first leg.

There have been 64 clashes between the sides in the past, with Leeds United winning 27 times over Norwich and losing on 20 occasions. There have been only 17 draws between the sides in history, including the 0-0 draw in the first leg of their Championship playoff on Sunday.

It ended Leeds United’s run of four consecutive wins in the fixture, including home and away wins in the league phase this season. The Peacocks, who finished the regular campaign three places above Norwich, accruing 17 points more, will look to get the job done at home.

Norwich vs Leeds team news

Norwich defender Dimitrios Giannoulis returned off the bench in their final game of the season after a few weeks out with a hamstring injury, and he’ll compete with Sam McCallum to start.

Club captain Grant Hanley also made his comeback at St Andrew’s, leaving Wagner with decisions to make at the back.

Leeds are sweating over Dan James’ fitness after Patrick Bamford’s absence both legs was confirmed, while Archie Gray could return to the midfield.

Norwich vs Leeds prediction

Leeds will hope the formbook goes out the window in the play-offs, which it certainly can, but momentum is important and Norwich’s solid home form points towards a difficult return to East Anglia for Farke.
