Prediction: Leeds United -1.25
Leeds United have returned to their usual form after a strong points haul mid-season, with three draws and two defeats in their last five games showing mediocre form.
Against 17th-placed Championship side Norwich City, the Asian handicap sets Leeds at -1.25 goals, reflecting confidence in their 40% home win rate.
Leeds have consistently justified this line with their results and performances against teams below 13th place in the Premier League at home. We back Leeds United to win at home.
Comprehensive Prediction Analysis:
Leeds United
Winners of the FA Cup during the 1971-72 campaign, Leeds United are on a mission to lift major silverware for the first time this century, with the Yorkshire outfit striving for three straight wins over Championship opposition in this year's competition.
Daniel Farke's side navigated into the fifth-round draw with consecutive away victories over Derby County and Birmingham City, with the latter forcing their Premier League visitors to penalties at St Andrew's Knighthead Park on February 15. Leeds come into this round-of-16 affair after recording back-to-back defeats in the top flight for the first time since late November, failing to score and losing by a single goal against both Manchester City and Sunderland at Elland Road.
Without victory in regular time of a fixture for five matches (D3 L2), the Whites remain 15th in the Premier League standings but have slumped closer to the drop zone, now possessing a mere three-point buffer over West Ham United in 18th. Dipping in form at the same rate as his team overall, Dominic Calvert-Lewin has failed to find the net in any of his last four competitive appearances after bagging seven goals in six matches during a purple patch over the festive period.

Norwich City
Turning out triumphant in nine of their past 11 matches across league and FA Cup duties, Norwich City are the in-form Championship outfit heading into the business stage of the season, although they are still likely to fall short of their pre-season ambitions.
Despite successive 2-0 wins over Sheffield Wednesday and Leicester City to round off a productive February schedule, the Canaries are a mammoth 12 points behind sixth-placed Wrexham in the second-tier table, dampening dreams of a late playoff push. As is the case in the Championship, Philippe Clement's men have also represented one of the standout competitors in the FA Cup this year, smashing Walsall 5-1 at Carrow Road in the third round before easing past West Bromwich Albion 3-1 to book a battle with Premier League Leeds.
Since a narrow 3-2 defeat at Watford on December 5, Norwich have lost just one of their last eight away fixtures (W5 D2), winning five of their past six, including tricky-looking trips to Wrexham and Queens Park Rangers in January. Whilst the form book points towards a possible FA Cup upset on Sunday, Leeds have dominated the recent meetings between the two sides, with the Canaries winless across their last eight clashes (D2 L6) versus the Whites dating back to October 2021.
