Leeds are one of three clubs, along with Southampton and Ipswich, hoping to catch Leicester in the Championship championship battle, and they will be expected to keep their promotion hopes alive with a win over Norwich at Elland Road
against Preston at home on Sunday.
This is a rapid turnaround, but manager Daniel Farke will be determined to outperform his previous employers, and any setback might jeopardise their top-two goals.
The Canaries are also unbeaten in five games across all competitions this calendar year, but they did lose 3-2 to Leeds at Carrow Road in October.
With the Whites having been totally dominant at home, winning ten and drawing four of their 14 league matches, David Wagner must ensure his Norwich side is fully prepared for this test.
Wilfried Gnonto missed Sunday’s win against Preston, and the Italy international is out again with a hip injury, while Karl Darlow, Pascal Struijk, and Stuart Dallas are still out for the hosts.
Norwich are without defender Danny Batth, and fellow centre-back and captain Grant Hanley is doubtful, so Ben Gibson and Shane Duffy will likely form a defensive partnership.
Leeds have dominated at Elland Road, staying unbeaten in 14 home league games and winning ten of them.
Leeds have won ten of their previous 11 home league games, with the only exception being a 1-1 draw with play-off hopes Coventry.
Nonetheless, both teams have scored in seven of their last nine league games on their home turf.
