Leeds will hope to continue their excellent run of form when they welcome historic rivals Manchester United to Elland Road on Sunday, in one of the most eagerly anticipated Premier League fixtures of the season.

Marcelo Bielsa’s men are on a five-game unbeaten streak that includes draws against Chelsea and Liverpool, as well as a 2-1 victory over Manchester City.

The Whites last hosted United in the Premier League back in 2003, when Roy Keane scored the decisive goal in a 1-0 result for the visitors.

United have all but secured Champions League football for next season – a crucial milestone after the club withdrew from the European Super League project earlier in the week.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s troops beat Burnley last time out and also have half an eye on Thursday’s Europa League semi-final first leg against Roma, so will need to be wary of what Leeds throw at them here.

Our prediction: Leeds v Man Utd

These sides shared eight goals at Old Trafford earlier in the season, but while fireworks are expected on Sunday, we shouldn’t be waiting for a similar result.

Leeds have tightened up at the back in recent weeks and it is this defensive solidarity that has earned them points against Chelsea, City and Liverpool.

United do have the explosive threat of Cavani and the technical mastery of Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes to lean on. In their last meeting, Scott McTominay ruled the midfield and the visitors will hope for a similar display on Sunday, even if the goals aren’t so free-flowing.

Our prediction: Leeds 1-1 Man Utd (15/2 at bet365)
