Friendly preview, predictions and lists

The historical rivals Manchester United and Leeds United begin their respective pre -season campaigns by competing in Sweden on Saturday afternoon.

The first of five planned pre -season lights for MAN UTD will follow your trip to Stockholm by ascending to the United States and competing three other Premier League teams -the West Ham United, Bournemouth and Everton. At the moment Ruben Amorim has to draw the attention of his site to her opening test of the summer.

The Red Devils had a catastrophic campaign from 2024–25, which ended by the final defeat of Tottenham Hotspur in Europa League. Improvements must be quick at the beginning of the new season, otherwise UTD will continue to immerse yourself in a crisis.

In contrast, Leeds enjoyed an immensely successful 2024–25 when they secured the championship title and their return to the Premier League. The team of Daniel Farkes will be launched in the previous season in the previous season in the previous season, as they are confronted with their collision with MAN UTD by facing Villarreal and AC Milan in early August, and they hoped to build some momentum before the start of the new season.

Here is a guide to the friendly game on Saturday in Scandinavia.

Man UTD against Leed's head-to-head record (last five games)

André Onana will not be involved in MAN UTD's pre -season plans after she recently suffered a damage injury in training. It could fail for up to two months, which means that he almost certainly misses the start of the Premier League campaign.

Lisandro Martínez is also missing when he continues to recover from an ACL rupture, while Christian Eriksen, Victor Lindelöf and Jonny Evans were released at the end of June when their contracts expired – even though he is now working as head of the club and ways of the club.

There is no place in the team for the five UTD players of Mann, who have reported reportedly, with Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho, Alejandro Garnacho, Antony and Tyrell Malacia.

The MAN UTD supporters will probably experience two unofficial debuts with £ 62.5 million ($ 83.9 million) on Saturday. He is probably presented considerably against Leeds, while Diego León was able to earn a few minutes after his move by Cerro Porteño.

There should also be opportunities for a number of academy prospects. Chido Obi, Harry Amass, Tyler Fredricson, Shea Lacey and Jack Fletcher are among those who could imagine.

UTD predicted the list vs. Leeds (3-4-2-1): Bayındır; Yoro, Maguire, Heaven; Dalot, Mainoo, Ugarte, Dorgu; Fernandes, Cunha; Højlund.

Farke debut is expected to prepare to his four high -ranking recruits as Gabriel Gudmundsson, Jaka Bijol, Sebastiaan Bornauw and Lukas Nmecha, all of whom are preparing for their first trip to the club.

Dan James recently wrote a contract extension with Leeds and will strive to celebrate his former club with the victory. Sam Byram has also expanded his stay with the whites and should introduce UTD.

Leeds recently signed Jayden Lienou and Louis EnaHoro-Marcus from Manchester City and Liverpool for their academy. Both may offer minutes during the previous season.

Leeds predicted the line-up against MAN UTD (4-2-3-1): Meslier; Bogle, Bijol, Struijk, Gudmundsson; Tanaka, Gruev; Gnonto, Aaronson, James; Piroe.

It is difficult to see exactly what we will see from MAN UTD and Leeds in view of their lengthy magic of the pitch and the integration of new obligations and tactical ideas. The pre -season is the perfect opportunity for experimenting and this often leads to disruptive displays.

Despite their terrible campaign between 2024 and 25, UTD is still expected to conquer their rivals in Sweden and have far more individual talent than the whites. However, an encouraging performance is more important for the followers of the club, which offers hope to develop.
