However, they also have a genuine opportunity. With a victory against Leeds on Wednesday, they would tie Man City for second place in the Premier League on points.
Additionally, it would increase their likelihood of finishing in the top four and qualifying for the Champions League the following season.
They will be facing a team devoid of confidence and operating without a manager because Leeds fired Jesse Marsch after their 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest. Due to their goal differential, the Yorkshire team is now only one position above the relegation zone.
Manchester United suspension news
The only Man Utd player suspended for the Leeds game is Casemiro. The Brazilian was dismissed for violent behavior in the Red Devils’ most recent game against Crystal Palace, which carries a mandatory three-game suspension.
Erik ten Hag stated that Man Utd opted not to appeal the punishment, therefore he will miss both games against Leeds, beginning with the next rescheduled matchup this week.
Manchester United injury news
Due to an ankle injury, Christian Eriksen is out for the long term. The important Dane might miss the remainder of the campaign. Due to injury, both Anthony Martial and Antony will be absent from the Man Utd lineup for the match against Leeds. Donny van de Beek will also miss the game due to injury.
Marcel Sabitzer, who joined the team in January, will almost definitely make his debut in that situation, and Jadon Sancho is now anticipated to join the team.
