All eyes will be on Elland Road on Sunday when Manchester United go in search of only their second Premier League win of the season, but face another tough opponent in Leeds United (kick-off 2pm, live on Sky Sports).

Tempers, frustration and disappointment were there for all to see on Tuesday as they were beaten 2-0 by Atletico Madrid in the Champions League.

The result in Madrid was their fourth defeat of the season, in just nine matches in all competitions, which has seen the pressure mount on manager Michael Carrick and the board, thanks to post-match comments from Lisandro Martinez.

United’s worst start to the season in 40 years leaves them 13th in the Premier League table with just six points from six games, while Sunday’s opponents Leeds are three points better off and sit 7th, just a point off fourth-placed Brentford.

Football betting sites are now offering as much as 5/2 on United finishing in the top four, behind Brighton & Hove Albion, while Leeds are 12/1.

Elland Road is not exactly a place you want to go in desperate search of a win, but for United they will probably welcome being away from home after two defeats and a draw at Old Trafford in their last three.

Despite being the away side, though, the pressure will very much be on them at a ground where Leeds are unbeaten so far this season.

In fact, you have to go back to March for the last time Daniel Farke’s side were beaten at home, when Sunderland won 1-0 thanks to a penalty from Habib Diarra.
