Man Utd handed huge selection boost for Leeds clash

Manchester United have been handed a huge selection boost ahead of the Premier League game against Leeds United on the road this weekend.

The Red Devils played out a frustrating 1-1 draw against Wolverhampton Wanderers earlier this week, and will be aiming to return to winning ways against their old rivals on Sunday.

Ahead of the encounter, United have received a timely boost with Leeds captain Ethan Ampadu suspended for the upcoming encounter at Elland Road.

The Welshman picked up his fifth booking of the league campaign against Liverpool at Anfield and has therefore triggered the threshold for a suspension after the first 19 games.

Leeds have been unbeaten in the last six league matches which has included draws against Liverpool and a win over Chelsea. Ampadu's absence should provide a boost for the Red Devils.

United have won three of the previous four meetings against Leeds, including a 2-0 win at Elland Road during the 2022/23 campaign.
