Is Leeds United v Man United on TV? Chanel, streaming details and team news

Leeds United interim boss Michael Skubala will remain in charge for Sunday’s Premier League game against Manchester United.

On Friday, they were turned down by Feyenoord boss Arne Slot, who told Dutch media he would be sticking with the Eredivisie club as they target the league title.

Skubala, the Leeds Under-21s boss, took charge for Wednesday night’s 2-2 draw at Old Trafford and will continue for a second league meeting when the sides do battle at Elland Road.

He said: “I’ve been having clear communication every day with (director of football) Victor (Orta). I expect to be in charge on Sunday.

“Back-to-back games are unusual, there may be one or two tweaks to the side, but there’s nothing we can change majorly. We can get work done tomorrow and a bit of shape.”
