Man Utd Analysis
The home team debuts in this edition after having finished the last season in 2nd place. Curiously, this is a team that presents more positive results away than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 8 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses in away matches, with 25 goals scored and 15 conceded, against 7 wins, 6 draws and 2 home defeats, with 31 goals scored and 18 conceded. The team comes for this match after a home win against Everton, by (4‑0). Manchester United have won 6, drawn 2 and lost 2 of their last 10 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches.
Manchester United enters this match very motivated after a great victory, by 4-0, against Everton, in a preparatory game for the next official matches: the team’s goals were scored by Mason Greenwood, Harry Maguire, Bruno Fernandes and Diogo Dalot. Norwegian coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer usually works in a tactical system in 4-3-3, where the three most advanced players are Daniel James, Mason Greenwood and Anthony Martial. The home team chooses to adopt a game in possession of the ball, attacking preferably through the center aisle. Out of this game are Alex Telles and Marcus Rashford, both with physical problems.
Leeds Analysis
This will be the first game in this edition of the visiting team’s competition, which ended the previous edition in 9th place. This is a team little affected by the home factor, that is, they have similar results at home and away, since in the last 30 matches they register 7 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with a total of 24 goals scored and 24 conceded. At home, they won 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 defeats, with a total of 24 goals scored and 15 conceded. In their last match, for the Club Friendlies, they got an away tie against Villarreal by (2‑2). In the last 10 away matches Leeds United has won 5, tied 2 and lost 3. The team has conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, so their defense needs to improve, but their offense has been scoring regularly, as they have managed to achieve in 9 of the last 10 games. In their away matches there is a tendency to have goals, as 22 of their last 25 matches ended with Over 1.5 goals and 18 out of 25 ended with Over 2.5 goals. In 15 matches, they have never been able to turn the score around in the 5 matches they have conceded the first goal.
Leeds United enters this match after a 2-2 draw against Villarreal, in a preparation game for the next official matches: the team’s goals were scored by Mateusz Klich and Patrick Bamford. Coach Marcelo Bielsa usually plays in a 4-3-3, favoring a more balanced style of play, where the three most advanced pieces are Patrick Bamford, Jack Harrison and Raphinha. One of the main flaws of the visiting team is the poor quality of the defensive dead balls. The Argentine coach can count on all his players.
