Man Utd preview: UCL push
Ever since the appointment of Michael Carrick, Manchester United have been much-improved as they return from a two-week break sitting tucked inside the UEFA Champions League spots and in an excellent position to finish the season well.
The Red Devils did most recently share a frustrating 2-2 draw with AFC Bournemouth at the Vitality Stadium in a game in which they did lead twice but ended up tripping up with Harry Maguire having been sent off in the 78th minute.
Leeds preview: Relegation battle
Daniel Farke and his Leeds United side are pushing themselves away from the bottom three and the relegation places but they aren’t in a brilliant position, beginning the match day sitting four points clear of the danger zone.
The visitors did earn themselves a famous win at the London Stadium last weekend as they defeated fellow strugglers West Ham United on penalties in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup after a dramatic 2-2 draw in the capital city.

Man Utd vs Leeds prediction
Leeds have been difficult to beat since the start of December. They have suffered just four defeats in 22 matches with all but a 4-0 hammering against Arsenal being unfortunate and by a one-goal margin. Manchester United will be aware that they will have to be at their absolute best. They have often looked a little shaky at the back and so Leeds will fancy themselves to pose a threat in Salford with a fun watch for the neutral seeming likely on Monday night.
