Leeds United vs Norwich City Competition – FA Cup Stadium: Elland Road Date: 8th March 2026 Kick-off time – 16:30 GMT
Leeds United host Norwich City at Elland Road on Sunday 8th March 2026 in an FA Cup fifth-round tie with a 16:30 GMT kick-off. Two sides meet in what is a genuinely intriguing all-round cup clash, with the prize of a quarter-final place up for grabs. Leeds come into this one as home favourites with the Elland Road crowd behind them, but they arrive in poor recent form — and Norwich are playing some of the best football in the division right now. This one is far from a foregone conclusion.
Leeds head into this cup tie having endured a difficult fortnight in the Premier League. Their most recent outing ended in a 1-0 home defeat to Sunderland on March 3rd — a result that will have frustrated the Elland Road faithful and heaped pressure on the squad going into a crucial cup fixture. In their previous match, they were beaten 1-0 at home by Manchester City on February 28th. Earlier in this sequence, they drew 1-1 away at Aston Villa on February 21st. Their route to this round came via a hard-fought FA Cup tie at Birmingham City on February 15th, where the score finished 1-1 after ninety minutes and Leeds progressed on penalties — a nervy passage into the last 16 that will have tested their resolve. Before that, they drew 2-2 away at Chelsea on February 10th. Two home defeats, two draws and a penalty shootout win tells the story of a side that has struggled for consistency in recent weeks, and Norwich will sense an opportunity.
Norwich City arrive in significantly better shape. Their most recent result was a 2-0 win away at Leicester City on February 28th — an authoritative performance on the road that reinforces their credentials as one of the Championship’s better sides. In their previous outing, they won 2-0 at home to Sheffield Wednesday on February 25th. Earlier, they suffered a 2-1 home defeat to Birmingham City on February 21st — the only real setback in an otherwise strong recent run. Their cup credentials were underlined with a 3-1 home win over West Bromwich Albion on February 14th to earn their place in this round, and before that they won 3-0 away at Oxford United on February 10th. Four wins from five, with three clean sheets in that run, speaks to a side that is well-organised, clinical and confident heading to West Yorkshire.
The head-to-head record across their five most recent meetings strongly favours Leeds United, who have won three of those clashes with two draws and no Norwich victories. Most recently, Leeds claimed a 2-0 home win in January 2025, while their most emphatic result in the sequence was a 4-0 home victory in May 2024. Norwich have yet to beat Leeds in any of these recent meetings, though they did hold the Whites to draws both home and away in that same period. Leeds will draw confidence from their H2H dominance — but Norwich’s current form is arguably the strongest of either side coming into this fixture.
