Sutton's predictions: Leeds United v Norwich City
- Published
Leeds' defeat by Sunderland, and then seeing West Ham and Nottingham Forest get good results in midweek, might just change the way Daniel Farke approaches this tie against his former club.
I can see him really prioritising Premier League survival. Next week's league game against Crystal Palace is a massive game, and I think he will leave his big-hitters out of this tie.
That opens the door for Norwich, who are in amazing form under Philippe Clement despite being depleted by injury.
He has done an unbelievable job and they are one of the form teams in the Championship.
Clement has brought belief and a winning mentality to the team and they play good football too.
I was at Elland Road in 2024 when Leeds destroyed Norwich 4-0 in the Championship play-off semi-final.
This time, I actually think my old side will go there and win - just as we did in the 1993-94 season, when Jeremy Goss scored one of the goals of the season, external.
People always talk about that Goss goal but a young striker called Chris Sutton put in a centre-forward masterclass that day, and he even found the net as well, with a clever finish.
It won't be 4-0 this time, but we will see another Norwich victory. Let me dream - the Canaries can make it to Wembley.
Sutton's prediction: 1-2, after extra time
