Man United v Leeds: Match preview, predicted lineups, and other details ahead of the PL fixture

Manchester United will host Leeds United at Old Trafford in a key Premier League clash, with both teams fighting for very different targets late in the season.

United enter the game in strong position in the top-four race. They sit third in the table and have opened a healthy gap over rivals chasing Champions League qualification. The team has also been solid under manager Michael Carrick, losing just once in their recent league run.

Leeds, meanwhile, are battling to stay clear of the relegation zone. Daniel Farke’s side are winless in their last six league matches and have struggled away from home, with just one victory in 15 away games this season.

United also have a strong historical record in this fixture. They are unbeaten in their last 18 home league games against Leeds and have lost just once in the last 20 meetings overall.

Predicted XI

Manchester United: Lamens; Dalot, Yoro, Martinez, Shaw; Casemiro, Mainoo; Mbeumo, Fernandes, Cunha; Sesko

Leeds United: Darlow; Bornauw, Struijk, Bijol; Bogle, Aaronson, Ampadu, Tanaka, Justin; Nmecha, Calvert-Lewin

Match prediction

Leeds have shown they can compete in this fixture in recent meetings, but their poor away form remains a major concern. United, on the other hand, have been consistent and strong at Old Trafford.

Data also suggests United are favourites with over 55 percent probability of winning the match.

Predicted scoreline:

Man United 3-1 Leeds United
