Leeds, meanwhile, are in fine fettle. They are unbeaten in seven and are riding high, with victories over Manchester United and Wolves fresh in the memory. They have reached this stage of the competition for the first time since 1987, and could confirm a first final berth since they finished as runners-up in 1973.
To provide well-rounded coverage and a breadth of insight across various events, we rely on contributions from several staff writers, each bringing their own area of expertise to our publication.
