"I heard it is a big derby and a great environment. A big rival. Every game in the Premier League is tough for us. I know that it means so much to the fans but we need to go there and try to win. I never experienced this one unfortunately, the rivalry here, it's the same but just with different environments and a different culture. But the noise is going to be big. We just have to perform."
"It's hard to compare different cultures, different bodies, a different history. Let's just focus on the game that is 11 guys against 11 in the beginning and we will try to win. They have a lot of pace and, sometimes, we struggle with pace. They are confident, but we have proved we can win any game in any situation, in every context."
Manchester United meet Leeds United while form contrasts sharply: Leeds sit low in the table but have recently drawn twice with Liverpool, beaten Chelsea 3-1 and thrashed Crystal Palace 4-1. Manchester United struggled at home, failing to beat Wolves. Since Leeds' 2020 return to the top flight, Manchester United recorded dominant wins including 6-2, 5-1, 4-2 and a 2-0 win at Elland Road. The fixture carries derby intensity and a noisy atmosphere that demands strong performance. Leeds pose a pace threat, rotate forward options, and display confidence, while Manchester United must adapt tactically to win.
