Manchester United take on Leeds at Elland Road on Sunday in the Premier League encounter between the teams in a heated clash between two of English football’s traditional powerhouses.
United boss Ruben Amorim will be without the services of Amad Diallo and Bryan Mbeumo, who are at AFCON, and skipper Bruno Fernandes, who is out injured.

“It was bad luck to lose Amad, Bryan, especially, and Bruno at the same time. They had more creation in the opportunities than the rest of the team. If you lose the three of them at the same time, any team in the world will struggle,” Amorim began.
“And now Mount. But I’m not talking about everyone. I’m just focusing
on the three guys that we have all the data, you have all the data, and you can sense that three guys create most of the chances for us,” the Portuguese gaffer said.
“And if you lose not one, but all three at the same time, of course we are going to struggle,” the 40-year-old continued.
“Then you have to put set pieces in that. Who is kicking the set pieces? Amad, Bryan and Bruno. So everything is combined and we just need to acknowledge,” he explained.
