It’s Leeds who come out victorious here at Old Trafford thanks to a first-half brace from 25-year-old Okafor and what a win that could prove to be come the end of the season. Farke’s side are now six points clear of the relegation zone with six games remaining. 10-man Man United reacted well to Martinez’s sending off but ultimately were way off the mark in the first half. They remain third but only via goal difference. Man United 1-2 Leeds, who would have thought?

Last time out at Elland Road, Leeds held Manchester United to a 1-1 draw in Ruben Amorim’s final game in charge. Brenden Aaronson broke the deadlock just after the hour mark, but Matheus Cunha pulled United back level just three minutes later.
