Leeds vs Man United preview
Despite the poor result, Amorim’s men remain just three points shy of the top four and they would get a chance against Leeds to get into the Champions League qualification zone. United will be confident by the fact that they are on a 25-game unbeaten run against newly-promoted teams. However, Leeds have shown they can take on the best.
Also, United will continue to be without some of their main men. Harry Maguire, Matthijs de Ligt and Bruno Fernandes are all out injured while the African stars are away in the AFCON.
Leeds enter the match on the back of a confidence boosting goalless draw at the Anfield against Liverpool. With the solid result against the Reds, Leeds now have a seven-point advantage over the Premier League relegation zone teams. The Whites have now gone six matches without a defeat even as they have won only two of these games.
The Manchester United-Leeds United rivalry is a historic one even though the two teams have rarely shared divisions in the recent past. The match-up between the two is heavily tilted towards the Red Devils who have been only defeated once by Leeds in last 19 matches.
Leeds last win against United came way back in January 2010 but with Amorim’s side without their best players and the Whites on an unbeaten run, anything can happen.
