Manchester United travels to Elland Road for take on Leeds United in a Premier League clash in Sunday 12 February, MySportDab reports.

The Red Devils will be looking forward to bounce back from a shock 2-2 draw with Leeds last week.

Match Preview

Erik Ten Hag’s side nearly drop all three points against Leeds who had surprisingly went two goals up before Manchester United responded with two second-half goals from Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho.

The Red Devils will hope to salvage all three points at Elland Road on Sunday, as they continue pushing for a top four finish, but Leeds’ Old Trafford scare need not be underestimated.

The two sides have played 27 matches between them, with Manchester United winning 16 times, drawing 7 and losing 4 times.

It is a very dicey top four race for the Red Devils after dropping two points against Leeds at Old Trafford.

Fourth-placed team Newcastle have now played one game less compared to the Red Devils and be ahead of Manchester United if they defeat Bournemouth away from home today.

On the other hand, Leeds are far from safety. They are just 1 points away from the relegation zone, with Everton charging up to step out of the relegation zone after a morale-booster win over Arsenal.

Team News

Manchester United will miss Casemiro as the Brazilian is still serving his three-match ban he picked up in the game against Crystal Palace.

Loan signing from Bayern Munich Marcel Sabitzer will likely replace the Brazilian in the midfield as he did in the first game at Old Trafford.

Bruno Fernandes will also start in the middle of the park, while Erik Ten Hag will likely stick with his chosen defensive lineup featuring Raphael Varane and Lisandro Martinez.

Marcus Rashford and Wout Weghorst will likely lead the attack.

Pascal Struijk is set to miss the game for Leeds after he suffered a head injury at Old Trafford.

Moreno and Shaw are still doubts for the game while Copper and Loca may likely return to the starting lineup.

Man United Probable Lineup: De Gea; Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Shaw; Sabitzer, Fred; Sancho, Fernandes, Rashford; Weghorst

Leeds Probable Lineup: Meslier; Ayling, Koch, Wober, Firpo; Adams, McKennie; Summerville, Aaronson, Gnonto; Bamford

The match kicks off by 14:00 GMT at Elland Road on Sunday 12 February.
