Manchester United vs Leeds United Betting Tips 14/08/2021

Teams Status

Manchester United

Manchester United will be looking to go one better than what they did last season where they finished in the second position, 12 points behind the leaders and their city rivals Manchester City. After 38 matches, they finished with 21 wins, 11 draws and six losses, accumulating 74 points. They finished five points clear of Liverpool. They had scored the second-highest number of goals with 73 goals. The ace midfielder Bruno Fernandes led both the goal scoring and the assists list with 18 goals and 12 assists under his belt. Their top signings this summer would be in the form of Jadon Sancho, Tom Heaton and Raphael Varane. Also, they have released a few players on loan including Joel Pereira, Facundo Pellistri and Tahith Chong. Donny van de Beek and Phil Jones could be doubtful for the opening clash against Leeds as they are not a 100% fit.

Leeds United

After getting promoted to the English Premier League at the end of the 2019 season, they had done really well last season and finished in a respectable ninth position. They were just three points away from the Europa League qualification position. They bagged 59 points from 38 matches including 18 wins, five draws and as many as 15 losses. Kalvin Phillips along with Patrick Bamford were the stars for Leeds in their first Premier League season after over 16 years. The latter led the goal scoring list for them with 17 goals under his belt. They managed to sign Jack Harrison from Manchester City who they had on loan last season. Also, they have welcomed the left back Junior Firpo from Barcelona. But they have also loaned out their star keeper Kiko Casilla to Elche.
