Man United won that meeting 1-0 in October 2003 while last season's league clash in West Yorkshire was played behind closed doors.

The Whites were beaten 3-0 at Everton last weekend to extend their winless run to three games, ahead of a tough run of fixtures.

Man United enjoyed a dream start to the season as Bruno Fernandes’s hat-trick rocked Leeds on the opening day of the campaign in August.

Fernandes’s treble was complemented by goals from Mason Greenwood and Fred.

Fernandes put the hosts 1-0 up at the break before a stunning Luke Ayling goal had levelled things for Marcelo Bielsa’s men early in the second half but the Red Devils hit back strongly.
