Leeds United vs Manchester United Moneyline Prediction
- Moneyline Pick: Manchester United
- Odds: +165 (Tonybet)
Manchester United are coming off a disappointing 1-1 draw against Wolverhampton at Old Trafford, while Leeds escaped from Anfield with a 0-0 draw against Liverpool after a valiant effort that saw them lose the xG battle by a sizable margin (2.07 to 0.69).
However, Man United are the better team in terms of individual talent, and even though they’ll be depleted, they should be able to get the job done.

The Whites have lost just twice at Elland Road this season (W4, D3, L2), but that venue hasn’t really been a fortress. They’ve won just three of their last eight matches overall (W3, D3, L2).
United are desperate to get a win following the draw against Wolves. With just one loss in their last five Premier League outings (W2, D2, L1) and only one defeat in their previous five on the road (W2, D2, L1), they should have enough in the tank to get past a Leeds side that have averaged 1.88 goals scored per home game.
Leeds United vs Manchester United Player Prop
- Prop Bet: Matheus Cunha to score anytime
- Odds: +204 (Tonybet)
Matheus Cunha’s numbers in his first season at Manchester United haven’t been the best, as the Brazilian forward has netted just three goals in league play. However, he’s found the back of the net in two of his last four EPL starts.
With Bryan Mbeumo and Bruno Fernandes out, look for Cunha to continue having a prominent role in the final third. He should take advantage of a depleted Leeds defensive line to score again here.

- SGP: Both teams to score + Over 2.5 total goals + Manchester United to win more corners
- Odds: +360 (Tonybet)
Considering that Leeds average 1.88 goals per encounter at Elland Road and that Man United have had defensive issues all season, it’s easy to see this clash ending with both teams scoring. That outcome has occurred in each of the last seven away games the Red Devils have played.
The same logic supports the over 2.5 total goals market.

That line has been cleared in each of the last seven matches Leeds have played at Elland Road, as well as in Manchester United’s previous eight on the road.
Last but not least, the visitors should come out on top in the corners market. With the Red Devils likely to dominate possession and frequently play wide through the likes of Diogo Dalot and Patrick Dorgu, they should generate a ton of corners against a defence that will likely sit back and play compact.
Leeds United vs Manchester United Team News
Leeds United Team News
Leeds United will be weakened defensively. They’ll be without two key starters in centre-back Joe Rodon (ankle) and midfielder Ethan Ampadu (suspension). Sebastiaan Bornauw is a heavy doubt after exiting Thursday’s 0-0 draw against Liverpool with a knock. Daniel James (hamstring) and Sean Longstaff (calf) are out.
Manchester United Team News
Manchester Utd will be depleted on both sides of the ball once again. They’re missing key playmaker Bruno Fernandes due to a hamstring injury, while reliable forwards Bryan Mbeumo and Adam Diallo, as well as Noussair Mazraoui, are sidelined due to AFCON duties.
The Red Devils will also lack depth at the back due to the absences of Harry Maguire (hamstring) and Matthijs de Ligt (back). Mason Mount (undisclosed) and Kobbie Mainoo (calf) are also dealing with injuries and aren’t likely to be available.
