Manchester United travel to Elland Road for a potentially feisty encounter with rivals Leeds United, live on TNT Sports and discovery+.

Ruben Amorim's side come into the clash in unpredictable form, having drawn with Bournemouth at home in an eight-goal thriller, before losing to Aston Villa on the road and then beating Newcastle United at Old Trafford.

United then ended 2025 with a disappointing 1-1 draw with bottom side Wolves, who had lost 11 successive league games before the encounter on December 30.

As for Leeds, Dominic Calvert-Lewin has rediscovered his best goalscoring form since his move from Everton.

The 28-year-old has been a live wire in the box, scoring seven goals in his last seven games, and seeing a strike disallowed in the club's 0-0 draw with Liverpool on New Year's Day.

Despite their indifferent form, United are currently searching for a path into the top four, while Leeds' resurgence has helped distance themselves from the dreaded drop and an instant return to the Championship.
