Where to watch live stream Norwich vs. Leeds, TV channel, lineups, prediction for the championship playoff match

Leeds United will be looking to bounce back from missing out on automatic promotion as the Championship play-offs begin this weekend.

Norwich City host Leeds on Sunday 12 May at Carrow Road in Norwich, England in the first leg of their semi-final.

Both teams come into the match in raw form. Leeds have lost three of their last four games, while Norwich have won just two games since the start of April.

Norwich will lean, like all season, on the shoulders of the American forward Josh Sargent. Originally from St. Louis, Mo. leads the team with 16 goals scored and will need to score again – or set up a teammate – to reach the championship playoff final.
