Accrington Stanley will be disappointed with their form in recent outings. In their last six games, they have managed just two victories to go with two defeats and two draws. The club is in a very unfortunate situation in League One, third tier of English football, occupying the 20th position with just 25 points from 25 games. They average a point per game, highlighting their struggles. Advancing further in the FA Cup will give them much needed confidence.
Leeds United won’t be satisfied and content with how their recent matches have turned out. They have earned just a single victory in their last six games accompanied by four draws and a loss. They are without a victory in the Premier League since the 5th of November. Too many draws have seen Leeds slip to the 15th position in the Premier League table, just a point above the relegation zone. FA Cup provides them with the perfect opportunity to settle in and reverse their fortunes.
Leeds United will have to deal with the absence of Adam Forshaw and Stuart Dallas for the game against Accrington Stanley.
