Leeds XI vs Birmingham – Predicted lineup and team news
Leeds United head to Birmingham City in the FA Cup fourth round on Sunday lunchtime.
Daniel Farke’s side team have pulled clear of the relegation places in the Premier League and head into this game after a spirited draw at Chelsea. Leeds recovered from two goals down to earn a point at Stamford Bridge in midweek.
The trip to St Andrews will see Leeds face a Birmingham team with big ambitions. The Blues earned promotion to the Championship in record-breaking fashion last season and are bidding for back-to-back promotions. A seven-game unbeaten run has lifted Birmingham within a point of the play-offs.
