Team News
Man Utd
Leeds
- Donny van de Beek's poor cameo against Sheffield United, coupled with Paul Pogba's strong form may cost him a place in the starting XI against Leeds.
- Van de Beek has the style to help United against Leeds' intensity but Pogba deserves to start. It's just whether Ole Gunnar Solskjaer trusts him to start three games in a week in addition to Leeds' style of play.
- Dean Henderson was always going to drop to the bench here after his start in midweek but even more so after an error-prone display against old club Sheffield United.
- Fred, Scott McTominay and Luke Shaw should return to the starting XI here, with Nemanja Matic and Mason Greenwood dropping to the bench.
- Solskjaer has confirmed Cavani trained with the first-team on Friday and should be in the squad this weekend.
- Marcelo Bielsa will hope to name an unchanged starting XI from the side that beat Newcastle 5-2 in midweek.
- Pablo Hernandez came off the bench and set up two of the goals but may have to settle for another place on the bench here.
Guys fair play they have amended it on here, let’s hope our bookies honour it . Good work whoscored.com and good work boys for pushing it
Paddy power have paid out now, seems as whoscored mate huge difference in pushing opta stats for correct decision! Hopefully rest you guys been paid out and rightly so
@casual_smarty my book still wasnt till its here 3 shots on target.
@C0r3 well hopefully they get it sorted as paddy power paid so finger crossed that opta stats sorts correct decision
Just an update for anyone over bamford shot, Whoscored have forwarded the video of the effort, and asked OptaStats who provide these stats to look into it, they are now looking into it and may take some time “oddly I don’t know why” but hopefully hear back soon, once again this is OPTA STATS issue not whoscored who supply it, they agree with us that it is on target but it’s opta who provide it, hopefully it’s sorted soon!
Nice prediction...I liked it...U have balls...but do you ever watch matches or what? You just came up with that shitty prediction out of nowhere...Yeah...MU defense is leaky...but Leeds is leakier...
Man utd played solid but leeds deserved more
When are paddy power going to pay out for bamford shot on target? Dont know what game they was watching but it was a clear shot on goal
@DSCHRODER0 I ain’t given up on this! Don’t care if it’s £1 or hundreds people win, it’s the fact of it winning! They refuse to watch video which I find shocking! They don’t need a site to confirm it when they can watch it themselves
@DSCHRODER0 sounds like all you can do guys is directly message them to review it because if they do review it we would still have rights to get bets looked at- until then it’s out of the betting companies hands. I want a reply so I’m Going to keep emailing them in the contact us section.
@GeorgeyD opta stats you want to get hold off it’s who scored told me to get in touch with they are the ones ruining it
@DSCHRODER0 they won't as they use Whoscored's stats for it and since they're showing he didn't, that's how they're settling it. I asked them why their settling team won't look it at themselves and they said that whoscored are very reliable so there's no need. So Whoscored need to check all the complaints/videos that have been sent to them and correct it or its costing alot of people money from bets settled as a loser when they were actually winners!!! COME ON WHOSCORED!!! Get your act together and prove you're the best stats website by admitting your mistake and correct the issue!!!
@TrickyDickymint I’m on the case who scored are forwarding the video on the opta stats they are the ones with the massive error
@casual_smarty What have they said to you? I'm awaiting a reply, let's hope we can get this mess sorted!
@Footy_Tipster the lad from who scored agreed personally he thinks it’s shot on target but has sent video over to opta stats! He reckons they will say it be down to fact of how it looped etc they didn’t determine it to be attempt on goal, but he says he thinks it is! If de gea don’t save it it goes in and would count as on target! So him saving it means it should be not rocket science
@casual_smarty where did you send it to mate?
@Footy_Tipster who scored on Twitter via inbox msg they will send it on they replied to me on there
@casual_smarty we should send it to OPTA too.
@C0r3 paddy power have paid now seems whoscored have got onto optas case over it rightly so
@TrickyDickymint where do we send to? I know they’ve received but I want to add to it. I’m fuming how they can say that wouldn’t have bounced on target if you look at the speed and trajectory it had. De Gea comes to meet it with momentum so where he lands changed the seeming direction of the ball., they need to look at this or they will lose their partners customers
Martial man of the match????leeds keeper had an exellent work ...miraculous reflexes ,i think mc tominay had a better job
Bielsa's tactics are so wacky, what's the point of keeping the wings rotating with each other like kids? Does this tactic ever bring good for any team managed by this crazy man?
@Yman he's got a working tactic but lacks the working system. Every system thrives on the efficiency of the players. There isn't that quality in his players
@Atuguba If you don't have that quality, why do you play with this way with one CMF without any DMF, and with wings rotating constantly with each other?
Bruno Fernandes 46th minute SHOT on TARGET why are you now saying off target?
@MKSunny, who controls this website, William Hill?
@MKSunny aha spot on they are corrupt
@casual_smarty, something isn't right. William Hill price boost, Bruno Fernandes over 2 shots on target (Need 3) 2 goals plus the 46 minute shot. Given as on target, suddenly changed to off target.
@MKSunny yeah I did see that it was on 3 then dropped to 2! Con
How is that not a shot on target... Had my money on Bamford to have a shot on target wtf
On the chalkboard you even have Bamfords shot on target as being headed from the penalty spot and going JUST wide.. that’s not even where it was from let alone it going wide. How can I post the video.. cone on guys the accuracy is important on this site.
@GeorgeyD spot on
United in 3rd place and played 1 less game than Liverpool and Leicester.
somebody can tell me what is for English a shot like the 5th goal when ball goes through player legs? Here in Argentina we call it "caño".
@dib In english it is called a 'nutmeg' when the ball goes between a players legs.
@dib Nutmeg
Leeds deserved a couple of goals more, to me a fair final score shoul've been 6-4 and the penalty was a gift from the referee.
@dib United would have had 3-4 more if Martial had any bottle, so we'll call it 10-4
@childishjp You're right but at the end Harrison had a clear chance also, so 10-5 chould be OK also.
@dib You probably missed the overarching point I was making - the match could have ended whatever scoreline if we added every chance, but it didn't. GGMU.
@dib *I count some clear chances from Cavani , from James but the penalty is still a gift and was called so lately
You count the bamford SHOT but yet not on target lol? Explain that? The dubious shot on target but give it as a shot ♂️
The whoscored prediction of a leeds 3-2 win obviously from a leeds fan :)
This game could've ended 15-7 or something!
Man Utd will go just 5 points off the top of the EPL with this win against Leeds.They seem to be picking up momentum.
Counter attacking Man Utd at their very best!
pretty wild
Brunaldo strikes again.
Waaat a game MU are having today
Bamford shot on target you give it? Then took it off? Also Martials? It was tipped for corner ffs! And the other Leeds shot on target in first half when it saved and fell to someone offside you didn’t give that either! Useless
@casual_smarty the offside one is fair enough I think but the bamford header was on target I’ve watched it over and over.. does this usually get fixed on this site? I think they’ve just taken off another one from Leeds in the second half too though as it’s just dropped down to 2 Shots on target.. when there has clearly been more.. ♂️
@GeorgeyD yeah but he only got given offside when it fell to the offside player, fair enough but yeah bamford header in first half is on target they give it took it off, I’ve had loads not given and bets lost due to this site as it’s used to confirm it, even sky other week give one and these didn’t and still settled as loss lol
@casual_smarty message them on the contact us section to review the same thing incase they miss mine. It’s a pretty big fuck up when betting sites are using them to settle bets.
@GeorgeyD have done loads before never hear back, they counted it as a shot but not on target ridiculous
now they will instantly put as tomorrows newspaper cover pages MAN UNITED READY FOR TITLE or something like that.. and we all know it that it wont happen, Ole is not a winner
Think you missed a Leeds shot on target at 6:42 mins into the game....
Why did you take away Bamfords shot on target , you originally said he had a header on target but changed it, you've cost me £100
@fingers82 they counted it as a shot but not on target comical
@fingers82 how do I send it to them..
@fingers82 I’ve just filmed it on my phone and slowed it down it’s definitely on target
@GeorgeyD did you send the video in?
@dj147 I haven’t but I can do. I was expecting they would just fix it by now.. I wrote to their customer service.. see what I get back. It doesn’t even seem debatable from what I can see
@GeorgeyD send it on mate they give it then took it off I had him in a special
My God, 8 men of MU at the defensive area , though Cooper headed comfortably. Bad for them. Just hope the Media definitely start overrating Bielsa, this is my main Xmas desire :)
So it’s 2–0 where are LU going to find three goals?
Scotty T is so underrated by United, should start every single game over Paul, what a lad
Both teams to score.
Leeds to score in the first half
@alxdru I would be shocked if Leeds don't win 1-0
@SeuneMilmas Are they going the scenic route?
@SeuneMilmas Pack it up
Asian handicap -1 Man Utd to win @ 2.05 odds
Utd 3-1
United will win it for sure.
Man Utd easy win 3-2 or 4-2 ht draw ft win
I expect man utd to win this whatsoever..it's in my opinion they will be serious PL title contenders n if they are to achieve that...these are points they should bag no matter the scoreline
2-1
The whoscored predictor guy must be a Leeds fan :)
@Rensen maybe
is Bielsa that stubborn to let Ole get him on counters... just like that ?!
@haemorrhage lol
@haemorrhage yes, stupid old man
Please, stop this automatic videos in the articles, its really annoying! Or just mute them..
I have criticized Whoscored innumerable times for their misjudged predictions and obnoxious opinions (Especially hyping up English clubs). However, I am proud of you for making this prediction. It shows you are gettng out of the claws of Big 6 English clubs, at least it's a start. Come on you Leeds!!
@saudes lol, must be 6-2 the stomach!
2-0
2-1
I bet this will be tough game for man utd
@Briiny lol
Whoscored lost the way. No way with that prediction. MU 3-1
lol that prediction is not happening
3-1 United win
