Tom Brady-owner Birmingham City, is out to snap a streak of back-to-back fourth-round exits in the FA Cup when it hosts Leeds United on Sunday.
How to Watch Birmingham City vs Leeds United
Leeds United and Birmingham City will revive their rivalry in the FA Cup fourth round on Sunday as both outfits get the chance to advance their hopes for a title this season. Daniel Farke's hosts won't want to take their eyes off the Premier League relegation battle, but a chance like this to reach the fifth round of the world's longest-running soccer competition doesn't present itself often.
The Blues, who are part-owned by NFL icon Tom Brady, travel to Elland Road in the midst of their battle for promotion from the Championship. Chris Davies' men sit 10th in the table and a single point off the promotion places, which are currently rounded out by another American-owned enterprise in Ryan Reynolds' Wrexham.
It just so happens that Leeds also has deep U.S. connections after being acquired by 49ers Enterprises in 2023. Brady grew up as a 49ers fan before being drafted by the New England Patriots, so a home win this weekend may have a slightly bittersweet taste.
Not that he would care too much, given Birmingham hasn't reached the fifth round of the FA Cup since 2020 and is currently riding an eight-match undefeated streak. Leeds is also on a high after coming back from two goals down to draw 2-2 away at Chelsea in midweek, so a trip to St. Andrew's shouldn't be as intimidating by comparison.
