Key Stats - Whites Win at Home

Leeds have won 4 of their last 6 home games.
Man United have lost 3 of their last 5 matches.

H2H

Man United have a 50-27 advantage against Leeds, alongside 38 draws.

Leeds Have an Excellent Recent Home Record

Daniel Farke’s Leeds have a good long-term record at Elland Road. The Yorkshire side are undefeated in 10 consecutive home matches in all competitions, winning seven.

The Whites began the 2026/27 campaign with a five-match unbeaten run in the Premier League. Leeds won twice in that period, 1-0 at Nottingham Forest and 4-1 against Newcastle at home.

Farke’s team extended their home unbeaten run with a 0-0 draw against Crystal Palace before the international break.

Leeds' first defeat of the campaign came away at Arsenal on Saturday. James Justin opened the scoring after half time and Leeds conceded two goals in the final 30 minutes.

Man United in Turmoil

Man United are lacking form and have won just twice in their last 12 matches. The Red Devils are winless in five consecutive domestic games.

United’s only league win this season was a 5-2 comeback home win against newly promoted Ipswich in August. A 2-2 draw at Everton was followed by back-to-back defeats against Man City 1-0 and Brighton 3-2.

Michael Carrick’s side then drew 1-1 at Fulham and at home against Tottenham. United allowed 1.62 in each game and had -1 XG in the Spurs stalemate.

The Red Devils’ downturn continued after a 2-0 loss at Atletico Madrid, where United allowed five shots on target. Lisandro Martinez criticised the club post-match and said recent results were “a reflection of the mirror of how is our club at the moment.”

Predicted Starting Lineups & Team News

Leeds (3-4-2-1): James Trafford; James Justin, Nico Elvedi, Tarik Muharemovic; Jayden Bogle, Ethan Ampadu, Ao Tanaka, Gabriel Gudmundsson; Anton Stach, Noah Okafor; Dominic Calvert-Lewin

Defender Joe Rondon and attacker Matteo Joseph are unavailable due to injury.

Dan James could make the squad against Man United after a recent injury. The winger gave a positive update on his recovery and said, “I’m working hard and we’ll see how the next few days go, really.”

Man United (4-2-3-1): Senne Lammens; Diogo Dalot, Harry Maguire, Lisandro Martinez, Ayden Heaven; Youri Tielemans, Carlos Baleba; Matheus Cunha, Bruno Fernandes, Amad Diallo; Bryan Mbeumo

Winger Patrick Dorgu, midfielder Manuel Ugarte and striker Benjamin Sesko are ruled out due to injury.

Defenders Noussair Mazraoui and Luke Shaw and midfielder Kobbie Mainoo missed the Atletico game through injury. The trio are injury doubts for the Leeds clash.

Verdict

Leeds v Man Utd

Leeds are a tough side to play against at Elland Road and Man United look low on confidence. There’s value on the in-form Whites to notch another home win in the Premier League.
