As does the Leeds manager Daniel Farke
[On his team selection] We want to be more attacking at home. It was also a bit forced because Sam Byram has a problem with his hip flexor. We trust Joel [Piroe] â he has scored many important goals for us.
Norwich are a brave side with technically good footballers in the middle. They have experienced strikers and we have to make sure we are compact and aggressive. We have to be spot on today.
We have a pretty good record when we go in the lead and scoring the first goal would make it easier from a tactical point of view. But the players know they have to be on it from the first to the last second.
Norwich manager David Wagner speaks
We know it will be decided tonight and we are prepared for all scenarios. Itâs important we start well, stay in the game. If we are able to score the first goal it will be a massive boost.
[On Ashley Barnes] The medical department worked tirelessly. Barnesy is a tough guy and he was desperate to be involved. Josh Sargentâs ankle is fine; he was never a doubt.

Preamble
Hello and welcome to live, minute-by-minute coverage of the playoff semi-final second leg between Leeds and Norwich at Elland Road. The first leg at Carrow Road was goalless, so this is basically a standalone game. To the victor, belongs the spoilsâ¦
We all know whatâs at stake; we donât need no poetry. The winners will play Southampton or West Brom at Wembley a week on Sunday, the losers will wonder why they bothered with the last nine months.
Kick off 8pm.
