Eighteen games played between Leeds and Norwich in the Premier League this season, and just the one win to write home about, coming in the former’s 1-0 victory over Watford at the start of this month. To stay that this would be a six-pointer, therefore, would be a huge understatement.
Norwich once again championed the Championship but are significantly struggling in the top flight, with the club currently caught in the riptide of a nine-game winless run, and enduring a goal difference of -21, which is the joint-worst record at this stage of a Premier League campaign, level with Sheffield Wednesday in 1999/00.
Incredibly but perhaps not surprisingly, Daniel Farke has the lowest points-per-game ratio (0.49), the lowest win ratio (10.6%) and the lowest goals-per-game ratio (0.60) of any Premier League manager who has taken charge of more than one season, so the emphasis to turn the tide here is huge.
Leeds meanwhile are suffering from the ill-fated but not scientifically-proven ‘second season syndrome’, with Marcelo Bielsa’s side just a place and three points above the relegation zone, so the Argentine will be desperate to, not only avoid defeat here, but produce a win to get their campaign back on track.

Norwich vs Leeds: Match Stats
Although Leeds are struggling significantly for form this campaign, they have remained a relentless workhorse nonetheless under Bielsa, typified by the rate of tackles in which they register every match. So far, only Brighton (175) have registered more tackles in the Premier League this season than Leeds (170).
That tenacity and high-octane press will undoubtedly work well to unsettle the hosts and put them on the back foot. Not only do the Canaries struggle for goals, but they haven’t scored more than once in any of their last 27 Premier League matches, netting just seven times and converting 2.6% of their shots in that time.
