Team shape
How will the two teams set up?
Official line-ups are announced roughly an hour before kick-off.
At home
Manchester United
Man Utd are organised and tough to break down, and they tend to earn results at Old Trafford by controlling the middle of the pitch.
Away
Leeds United
Leeds are a pragmatic mid-table team: sturdy out of possession on the road at Old Trafford, but short of the creativity to dictate a game.
What could change
What would change the King Exchange prediction?
Team news and match events that would move our numbers.
If Man Utd field a weakened XI
Rotation or a missing key player would take several points off their win chance. Line-ups drop an hour before kick-off.
If Leeds score first
The favourite must chase, and both the draw and the upset become far more likely.
If a red card arrives in the first hour
Playing with ten men rewrites the expected-goals picture, whichever team it hits.
The long read
Man Utd vs Leeds match preview
