Manchester United vs Leeds 08.02.2023

Marcus Rashford’s post-World Cup form has helped Man United re-ignite their season, putting them in a mathematical position to hunt down leaders Arsenal and second-placed City. With Arsenal’s 1-0 defeat to Everton and City’s loss to Spurs, Man United are in a vantage position to further cement their top 4 ambition and remain in contention for the title. When they host Leeds on Wednesday, the Red Devils would be counting on their home form to get all 3 points and cut Arsenal’s lead at the summit to 5.

For Leeds, they face a huge task against a side that has dominated past meetings. In fact, Leeds’ last win against Man United came back in 2010. Since then, they have only managed 1 draw losing the rest of their encounters. Jesse Marsch’s men would however be motivated by the need to swim as far away from the relegation waters as possible. For that to happen, results must start coming in earnest.

Based on Man United’s current form, especially at home, and how well they have dominated Leeds in past meetings, it’s hard to picture Leeds doing anything productive here. To this end, we are backing the Red Devils to score at least twice in this tie.
