Leeds v Plymouth Argyle

Can we cause an upset

Writing for the BBC, pundit Chris Sutton has shared his predictions for the match where he believes Leeds should cruise through to the next round of the competition.

Having already beaten the Pilgrims at home this season in the league, Sutton thinks Daniel Farke’s men will be preparing for the fifth round, as he wrote:

“It’s pretty clear who are the favourites here – Leeds haven’t lost at home all season, while Plymouth haven’t won away.

“Leeds needed an added-time penalty to beat Preston on Sunday but it was the right decision. I am a big fan of their manager Daniel Farke, who did really good things at Norwich, and they are right in the mix now for automatic promotion.

“That is obviously their main aim this season but it would be great to see them have a real go at the FA Cup too.

“They beat Plymouth at Elland Road in November and, if they can repeat that result on Saturday, no-one will want to go there in round five.

“Argyle will carry a threat – they have got Morgan Whittaker, who is a really talented attacker – but I am going to say Leeds will get the job done.

Leeds should progress, but both sides won’t be at full strength

Both sides have bigger fish to fry, Leeds more so than Plymouth, when it comes to the league so changes are surely afoot.

Plymouth won’t be at full strength as their new signing Darko Gyabi won’t be available, and Leeds need to be wrapping various players in cotton wool this weekend.

We cannot afford needless injuries to vital players right as we’re starting to throw our weight around in the promotion race.

Changes all over the pitch to bring fringe players in, that’s what we need.

Referee: Lewis Smith

Totals: 30 games 114 yellows 5 reds

Assistant referees: Jonathan Hunt & George Byrne

Fourth official: Sam Allison

im not that bothered if we win this or not to be honest. Sure, it would be nice to get to the 5th round but unless we are getting a top premiership side then its not financially worth it and prolonging a cup run over securing our league status this season.

I think we should go out and try to win every game.
Winners mentality and all that jazz.

I agree.

me tooo

Why would anyone want their team , to go out and lose?

No cup upset so we can concentrate on Championship survival

Foo noo posters on yer, wass gain on yer?

Argyle tend to lose 2-1 at Leeds so;


2-1

Don't want to get the young lady sending in the abuse reports too excited.

Nothing would give me more pleasure than to turn dirty Leeds over
But there away a head of us in all ways unfortunately!
With the squad quality players with premiership quality and possibly on the cusp of trying to return PL plus theres even talk of em resting players up to 5 changes for them
No doubt it’s a hard game and im expecting nothing …but I will be watching and hoping we can pull off a upset well more of a miracle you never know so here’s hoping COYGs

At least no stress with FA Cup days unlike league match days! If we lose then so what. We'd only get another championship team away shit draw in Round 5 anyway. Only thing that matters is no injuries today. And no replay!!

Easy 3 points for us today, just got here, mushy peas.

fair play to Maidstone they are having a good go at ipswich currently 2-1 to them.

What does that have to do with Argyle ?

they won

nice pay day for them in round 5. now on to whether or not we get there now.

good luck to caleb roberts who starts today.

It's like Premier League v National League South now. Leeds are absolutely dominant.

we are being ripped apart by the wingers good goal in fairness from Leeds.

Could be in for bit of a hammering today. Maidstone didn't look out of place at Portman Road but the sheer gulf in class between Leeds and Argo is frightening.

we started off well but started to tail off and leeds are firmly in control. Some good defending, goalkeeping and luck have kept it 1-0.

Not sure if Gyabi, Devine or Forshaw are going to be the creative flair and influence we need behind hardie so he can have decent service supplied to him cause hes getting scraps today.

Were a totally different outfit away from home, it's bizarre. Janner inferiority complex? enjoy your big day out, thank the bus driver etc etc.
