Leeds host Manchester United in the Premier League on Sunday, with United winless in four and Leeds having won once in their last five.
By FootieRadar Desk · Published · 3 min read
Manchester United have not won in four matches, and their most recent game was a 0-2 defeat at Atletico Madrid in the Champions League. Leeds have not fared much better, with one win from their last five in all competitions, though they sit seventh in the table on nine points from six.
Kick-off is Sunday 18 October, 4pm Kenya time, at Elland Road, with Darren England refereeing.
Leeds ahead on points and recent form
Leeds have nine points from six league games, with two wins, three draws and one defeat. That defeat came at Arsenal (1-2), and their biggest win was the 4-1 against Newcastle on 14 September. Across their last five in all competitions they have scored nine and conceded ten, including a 3-6 League Cup defeat at Chelsea.
United have six points from six league games, with one win, three draws and two defeats. Their last five have brought no wins, two draws and three defeats, with four goals scored and eight conceded. Their only league win was a 5-2 home victory over Ipswich, in which Bruno Fernandes scored three.

Leeds' short absentee list, United's long one
Leeds are listed as missing M. Joseph (knee) and J. Rodon (muscle) for the fixture, while D. James (back) is a doubt. Dominic Calvert-Lewin is Leeds' top scorer in the Premier League with two goals and an assist, and Jayden Bogle has also scored twice this season.
United have the longer list. P. Dorgu (hamstring), B. Sesko (leg) and M. Ugarte (knee) are all missing, while T. Heaton (abdominal strain), K. Mainoo, N. Mazraoui and L. Shaw are questionable. Mainoo has the highest average rating of any listed key player on either side, 7.4, just ahead of Fernandes on 7.36, though his availability is still in doubt.
Two league meetings, one Leeds win
Friendlies aside, the two sides have met twice in the Premier League in the data we hold. The first, on 4 January, ended 1-1 at Elland Road. The second, on 13 April, was a 2-1 Leeds win at Old Trafford, so the most recent competitive meeting went to the visitors.
United's goal difference is zero, Leeds' is three
United have scored nine and conceded nine in the league, leaving their goal difference at zero. Their last five have yielded four goals and eight conceded, and they have kept no league clean sheets this season. Leeds have kept two and sit three goals to the good, although they have also conceded ten in their last five.
At the time of writing, the betting market's view is 41% for a Leeds win, 27% for a draw and 32% for a Manchester United win. Those figures come from Pinnacle's odds with the bookmaker's margin removed, so they show the market's view rather than ours. On the market's numbers, Leeds are the slight favourites at home.
