Preview Leeds United Premier League, Apr 25, 2021

Preview Leeds United denied Liverpool a win on Monday when both met for their 32nd league appearance of the season at Elland Road. The game ended in a 1-1 draw after Diego Llorente (87') headed the ball into the net as Allison remained rooted to the spot. Earlier, Trent Alexander-Arnold helped put Liverpool in front with an assist after he beat Leed's onrushing goalkeeper, Illan Meslier and played the ball through to Sadio Mane (31'). The Senegalese handed Liverpool the lead as he put the ball into an empty net. Leeds had several decent chances after Liverpool's goal – with the most notable one being when Patrick Bamford struck the crossbar with a fine lob. That draw leaves the Peacocks with a form that reads: DWWWD (Premier League) as they sit in 10th place after playing 32 matches. Focusing on goal stats, Leeds have scored 50 goals, conceded equally as many - 50 and have a GD of 0 coupled with 46 points after 14W, 4D & 14L. Their stats show a goal scoring ratio of 1.56 goals per game. On Sunday, Marcelo Bielsa is expected to adopt a 4—1—4—1 formation with Patrick Bamford who has 14 goals in 32 Premier League appearances for Leeds leading the attack when he takes on Manchester United. Rodrigo and Adam Forshaw are ruled out of this tie while Liam Cooper is suspended. Raphinha also remains doubtful for the home side.

Preview Manchester United are in 2nd place on the table – 11 points behind league leaders, Manchester City while having 19W, 9D & 4L. On Sunday the 18th of April they defeated Burnley, 3-1 at Old Trafford.

Burnley's only goal came through James Tarkowski (50'). Earlier in the week, Manchester United rescinded their decision to take part in the breakaway Super League competition which has now been suspended.
