How to watch Leeds United vs Manchester United live: Stream, TV, team news, prediction

Beleaguered Manchester United head to fierce rivals Leeds United on Sunday, as the pressure continues to build on Michael Carrick and those above him. After their poor display, and defeat, at Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Champions League in midweek , United center back Lisandro Martinez hit out at sporting director Jason Wilcox and the hierarchy about how they've built the squad. After just two wins from their first nine games of the season, all is not well in the red half of Manchester. Across the Pennines, Daniel Farke's Leeds were unbeaten until their trip to Arsenal last weekend as they took the lead but ended up losing 2-1 . There's no shame in that and Leeds have clearly improved over the summer with some key additions hitting the ground running as they aim to push for a top 10 finish this season.

Striker Benjamin Sesko remains out, while Matthijs de Ligt could make an appearance after his lengthy back issue. Patrick Dorgu and Manuel Ugarte remain out, while Noussair Mazraoui is a doubt.
