BBC Sport pundit Chris Sutton has said Leeds United will face 'no problems' when they travel down to the Cardiff City Stadium this weekend as they try and make the fourth round of the F.A Cup by beating Cardiff City.
Jesse Marsch's men have had a tough return to life back in the Premier League after the winter break but with a hard-fought 0-0 draw against high-flyers Newcastle United and a 2-2 draw against West Ham in midweek, a Championship opponent could prove to give the Whites some respite.
Cardiff, on the other hand, sit in 20th place in their league table and haven't won in their last seven matches. An illness has also reportedly 'ripped through' their camp with at least three key players out with the flu.

While writing for BBC Sport, Chris Sutton highlighted that Leeds shouldn't have an issue with the fixture as long as they play at their 'usual intensity'.
"It is 21 years since Cardiff shocked Leeds with a famous FA Cup third-round win but I don't see the Welsh side causing them any problems whatsoever this time.
"Part of the reason for that is that Cardiff are playing so poorly at the moment, but I also think Jesse Marsch will pick a strong side and that Leeds will play with their usual intensity. Cardiff 0-3 Leeds."
