Small wonder Jesse Marsch says he is not sleeping too well at present. Or that he dubs Norwich’s visit “a cup final”. The American realises the scale of the challenge ahead as he seeks a first win as Leeds manager at the third attempt. After six successive league defeats 16th-placed Leeds simply cannot afford to lose to a Norwich side four places and six points beneath them. “Fear will ensure failure,” said Marsch. “It won’t protect us. We have to be fearless.” Much may hinge on whether Patrick Bamford is fit to start in the home attack. Louise Taylor
