Leeds United vs Manchester United Betting Analysis
Manchester United and Leeds meet for the second time in a week on Sunday after a thrilling 2-2 draw unfolded between the pair in midweek.
Leeds powered to a 2-0 lead after Manchester United defender Raphael Varane made a huge error at the back gifting Leeds an own goal as the so-called ‘new manager bounce’ was seemingly on course to register yet another huge upset on Wednesday night.
However, it wasn’t to be as Marcus Rashford’s opening goal for United inspired a comeback that saw them net two goals in just eight minutes to take a share of the spoils in that game.
New caretaker Leeds manager Michael Skubala was proud of his team’s effort overall and will no doubt look for more of the same here in Leeds’ first game at home since Jesse Marsch’s departure last week.
Manchester United Fighting On All Fronts
Manchester United are fighting wars on all fronts right now as they try to solidify a top-four spot in the league, a last 16 FA Cup run, a League Cup final against Newcastle in just two weeks’ time, and perhaps most importantly, face a tough trip over to the Camp Nou on Thursday to take on Spanish giants Barcelona in the Europa League.
That might stretch Manchester United’s focus a little thin here on Sunday and Leeds will no doubt be looking to capitalize as a result.
Leeds Still Giving Up Points In Games
Only Leicester City have given up more points from winning positions in the EPL this season than Leeds currently have, and that’s an area whoever the new permanent manager is at Elland Road will have to address if Leeds are going to survive moving forward this season.
Manchester United continued that run for Leeds on Wednesday also, coming back from a 2-0 deficit to snatch two much-needed points away from Leed’s grasp, adding onto the 13 more Leeds have already given up from advantageous positions this season.
Leeds United vs Manchester United Prediction
It’s hard not to look past Leeds getting something from this game again here on Sunday, especially considering they’re at home and given how good they looked at Old Trafford on Wednesday as well.
Leeds’ target man Patrick Bamford was quick to throw Jesse Marsch under the bus after their defeat against Nottingham Forest last week.
Those comments could have well been a hint of even deeper problems at the club as Bamford seemed extremely comfortable in criticizing his former boss’ tactics so openly to the press prior to his sacking.
Those issues now seem to have largely been addressed however, and Leeds played with a level of confidence on Wednesday night that we’ve rarely seen from them over recent months.
Look for that to continue here as Leeds look to cover at home against a distracted Manchester United side on Sunday.
Prediction: Leeds United +0.5 (-105)
