Steve Evans has told the Yorkshire Evening Post that he wouldn’t be shocked if Leeds United were able to beat Cardiff City later this evening.
The Bluebirds have not lost a home game since way back in September, but Evans is confident that his side can pull off an upset.
The Whites won against Cardiff at Elland Road earlier in the campaign, and the 53-year-old is taking optimism from that performance.
“I’m not ignoring Cardiff’s record and they’re playing very well,” he said.
“I watched them win 2-0 at Bristol City on Saturday and it should have been four or five. But we beat them at Elland Road (in November) and deservedly so in my opinion.
“We’ve got good players here. I know we’ve gone through a tough time but there are talented players in my squad. It’s about performance. If eight or nine of ours are close to the top of their game tonight, we’ll come away with something. That’s a given. And let’s not kid ourselves – we owe the fans who are travelling a performance and a result.”
