19-year-old Gnonto has been excellent for Leeds in recent weeks and he's started this game so brightly.

GOOOOAAAAAL! Gnonto

Oh wow, Leeds have stunned Old Trafford into silence! Gnonto with the strike.

Good evening from Old Trafford

Welcome to live coverage of Manchester United vs Leeds United with kick-off at 8pm (BST).

Erik ten Hag will look to stretch his sides winning run at Old Trafford to 14 games in all competitions as they host managerless Leeds United- the first of two meetings for both clubs in the space of the week.

Both fixtures could have huge consequences towards both ends of the Premier League table. Manchester United are hoping to enter into the title race whilst their opponents Leeds United are fighting to avoid relegation.

Jesse Marsch's brief tenure at the club ended on Monday after a run of poor form. The American leaves the club sitting 17th in the Premier League table and out of the relegation zone but on goal difference only.

The backroom trio of Michael Skubala, Paco Gallardo and Chris Armas take temporary charge of the team tonight until a replacement can be found.

Ahead of tonight's match, Leeds chairman Andrea Radrizzani said the club needs more time in their hunt for a new manager after Marsch's departure.

The Italian had hinted on Tuesday evening that an announcement by the club was imminent, saying: "We are on it. Hopefully white smoke by Tuesday evening or Wednesday morning."

However, the club are yet to announce an successor.

The visitors have not won a league game since November and their last outing ended in a narrow 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest.

Whilst, Manchester United can draw level on points with Manchester City tonight if they claim victory over Leeds United.

Erik ten Hag's side currently sit three points behind the current champions and eight points adrift of league leaders Arsenal.

However, ahead of tonight's kick-off Erik ten Hag has been dealt a blow, as his side will have to play without midfielder Casemiro.

The Brazilian was sent off in Manchester United's 2-1 win over Crystal Palace last weekend and is now suspended for the next three matches.

Stick with us for all of the team news, build-up, and interviews ahead of kick-off at 8pm.
