Leeds United fans have been chiming in with their predictions on Twitter ahead of their match against Salford City.
It’s certainly going to be an interesting affair. The Whites and the Ammies have never met before, and due to the fact this is Salford’s first-ever game in the EFL Cup they’re bound to be up for it.
Salford have gone through a meteoric rise in non-league, with three promotions in four seasons landing them a spot in League Two.
This is partly down to the investment they have had from a group of former Manchester United players who are shareholders in the club along with billionaire businessman Peter Lim.
Unsurprisingly, many Leeds fans fancy their chances of getting a big win here. The Whites are two tiers above Salford, and if they field their strongest team they should brush them aside with ease.
Supporters of the Yorkshire club are incredibly confident as they predicted huge scorelines such as 4-0 and 5-1.

Unfortunately, some fans had some predictions surrounding off the pitch matters. Due to the link between Salford and Manchester United, some fans are worried that there may be trouble between the spectators.
Don’t care about the result tbh. Just want the lads and fans to come home safe.
