Chelsea's Martinez suffered concussion after collision at Everton, says Alonso
Former Newcastle United striker Alan Shearer has forecasted that Leeds United will emerge victorious in their upcoming Premier League match against Manchester United on Sunday. The Manchester United team has struggled this season, securing just two wins in their first nine games across all competitions. Their performance dipped notably after a 2-0 defeat to Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Champions League.
In an article for Metro, Shearer expressed a lack of confidence in Manchester United and predicted Leeds to secure all three points at Elland Road. He wrote, "Elland Road will be absolutely bouncing, They’re up against it, Man United and they’re up against this Leeds team who are going to make it very difficult. They were brilliant at Arsenal last week.
I’ve got no faith or confidence in Man United. So, I’m going to say a home win. I think Leeds will beat them." Leeds, too, entered the match following a loss to Premier League champions Arsenal, but Shearer believed the team provided the Gunners with a tough challenge. He stated that Leeds would approach the fixture with confidence and aim to capitalize on the pressure Manchester United are currently under.
"Leeds went 1-0 up against Arsenal and they missed a couple of chances before that, so they deservedly took the lead. It was only then when Arsenal made the changes that they lost the game. So, I think Leeds will go into this with more belief and confidence, and they’ll know the pressure that Man United are under. I think they’ll feed off that, so that’s why I’m going for a home win."
