Leeds have only lost two of their last 15 meetings with Norwich, and both of those came when Daniel Farke, who now occupies the home dugout at Elland Road, was in charge of Sunday's visitors.
Farke, of course, still holds a special place in the hearts of Canaries fans for the joy of two promotion-winning campaigns between 2019-2021.
Philippe Clement is a man on his own mission, though. Norwich were relegation-bound before the Belgian arrived, keen to prove his credentials in the English leagues after taking a stab at Scotland and falling foul of Celtic's unrelenting dominance. Overseeing Rangers' first home loss to St Mirren since 1991 in his final act in charge wasn't exactly the highlight of his tumultuous tenure at Ibrox.

FA Cup: Norwich City seek upset against ex-boss Daniel Farke's Leeds
Norwich have not won any of their six games against Leeds since the Yorkshire club appointed their former boss in 2023
Winning one promotion to the Premier League would probably have been enough to establish Daniel Farke's place among the most respected managers in Norwich City history.
To do it twice – and in the space of only three seasons – means he will be forever regarded with affection by the club's fanbase, no matter that he was unable to establish them in the top flight.
Now, it is the task of the current Canaries squad to try to beat Farke's Leeds United side at Elland Road and earn a place in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup for the first time since the German guided them to that stage in 2019-20.
