Leeds United form and stats

Manchester United form and stats

5 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses. That’s the product of Manchester United playing as the away team in the Premier League this season.

United are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the match against Brighton & Hove Albion (placed 9th). Fernandes got a match rating of 8.45 in that game, top player of the team. Fernandes scored one goal, hit five key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

A 1-1 draw was the result before that, hosting Southampton.
