Man United vs Leeds United – Betting Preview
Man United Preview
When Manchester United plays Leeds at Old Trafford on Wednesday night, they will be attempting to earn their fifth straight victory in all competitions. Manchester United has won four straight games overall since their loss to Arsenal and will try to cut the gap on the top two teams, who both dropped their previous games.
Marcus Rashford has scored 19 goals this season across all competitions. Rashford, who has played a big role for the team this season, will want to continue his successful streak by scoring once more. In his previous seven Premier League games, he has scored 6 goals!
Owing to injuries, Manchester United will be without McTominay, Eriksen, and Van De Beek. Casemiro will also be unavailable due to a clear red card. Sabitzer will now have the chance to start the game. Due to worries about his fitness, Martial is uncertain for the contest.
Leeds United Preview
Leeds, on the other hand, dropped to 17th place after their Sunday match against Nottingham Forest and have only won one of their past ten league games. They remain above the bottom three teams, though, thanks to a higher goal difference.
Leeds will be depending on their primary striker to reverse their fortunes because they have had trouble scoring goals this season. The English striker will have a tough task ahead of him if he wants to score goals and keep his team from finishing last in the standings.
Dallas, Rodrigo, and Forshaw will not be available for Leeds due to injury, however. After serving a one-game suspension against Nottingham Forest, Koch will rejoin the team. McKennie, a recent acquisition, will be a candidate to kick off the game.
