Man United vs. Leeds United: Head-to-head record and past meetings

Manchester United fell to a disappointing 2-1 defeat to rivals Leeds United in the Premier League clash on Monday night.

The Whites raced into a 2-0 lead in the first half thanks to a brace from Noah Okafor, with Man United further punished when Lisandro Martinez was given his marching order just before the hour mark.

While Casemiro headed one home for Man United in the 69th-minute, making for a nervy ending to the game, Daniel Farke's side managed to escape with all three points, sealing just their second away league win of the term.
