Cardiff City vs Leeds United

Leeds United begin their 2022/23 Emirates FA Cup campaign away at Cardiff City on Sunday afternoon, 2pm, in a match live on ITV.

The match is live on ITV for supporters who haven’t been able to travel. Other than that, the head coach has plenty of decisions to make on his selection. Top scorer for the home side currently across all competitions is Mark Harris, the 24-year-old Wales international has three to his name. Four wins and a draw from the last five games followed on from three straight success for the Whites. Of course, United famously added their name to the cup in 1972. It’s a change from league action for both teams who will be looking to get back to winning ways, after not tasting a victory in their last few matches.

The Whites get their FA Cup campaign underway at the Cardiff City Stadium this afternoon.

Mark Hudson will be keen to see his side take the scalp of Leeds, though, and end their seven match winless run. After all of the anticipation and waiting for football to return, Leeds were rusty and useless on a dire day in the Welsh capital. He joined the club on Tuesday from RB Salzburg and he's spent the last few days training with his new teammates. The Austrian will look to make his debut as a substitute today. All six should be expected to start in Wales. Cardiff City may be just two points above the Championship drop zone, but we all know this competition is a great leveller. The head coach would not name names when he mentioned a large number of players were carrying knocks before the match. Given we have no idea who he’s talking about, we’ll have to treat everyone as available beyond Adam Forshaw, Patrick Bamford, Stuart Dallas and Luis Sinisterra. Leeds have failed to beat Cardiff in any of their last five encounters. Queens Park Rangers, Arsenal, Crawley Town and West Ham United all put pay to any hopes of a Marcelo Bielsa was not able to turn the recent record on its head either. There's no Meslier who is missing with a slight muscle knock.

Cardiff City suffered late heartbreak in their FA Cup third round tie with Leeds United after Sonny Perkins tapped home in injury time to earn a 2-2 draw ...

Alnwick gets a hand on it, but it's too powerful for him and hits the back of the net. Bagan, scrambling, stuck out a left hand to save a certain goal and parry the ball wide of the post. Perkins reacted quickest and nudged it past Alnwick to level the scores. Bagan blocks a cross and it's a corner. Boos from the away fans, massive cheers from the home supporters. Jarred Gillett pointed to the spot and brandished the red card. With just 10 minutes to go, and Cardiff holding a slender one-goal lead, Rodrigo's breakaway led to a shot from Junior Firpo inside the box. Instead, he belted it into the sea of Leeds fans behind the goal. Sang slotted an intelligent ball down the side of the centre-backs and Mark Harris latched on to it, before seeing his own shot saved. Remaining cool under pressure, the Wales international then fed Isaak Davies, who was starting his first game of the season, and the striker's shot struck a Leeds leg before fortuitously dropping into Philogene's path. But, thanks to Tom Sang and others, Cardiff weathered the early storm. Cardiff fans were in euphoria, singing, "We're Cardiff City, we're taking the p***."
