Thomas Christiansen’s Leeds United will face Newport County in the FA Cup this afternoon.

Leeds United will return to action this afternoon when they take on Newport County away from home at Rodney Parade in the third round of the FA Cup.
The Whites are favourites to win against County and should be able to book a place in the fourth round of the FA Cup with relative ease.
The West Yorkshire outfit will head into the match on the back of a goalless draw with Nottingham Forest at Elland Road in the Championship.

Newport, though, will make it hard for Leeds, as they will be looking to cause an FA Cup upset.
An early goal for the home team could make it tricky for the Whites, who are probably more concerned about finishing in the top six of the Championship this season.
The West Yorkshire outfit are sixth in the Championship table at the moment with 43 points from 26 matches.

This is how Leeds will line up against County in the FA Cup this afternoon:
