- By A.J. Ryder on July 29, 2021 12:38 GMTEasily one of the surprise packages who played a lot of exciting attacking football, Leeds showed that they could emerge as genuine giant killers and there would be no better kick off to their season than to pull off a surprise result at Old Trafford and set the tone going forward.

As it currently stands, the bookmakers have Manchester United listed as the 4/7 favourites to pull off the victory while Leeds can be backed at a rather competitive price of 5/1. The draw rewards at a best price of 39/10 and that has been taking some action over the last week or so since the odds have been unveiled.
An emphatic victory on the opening day would be a major statement and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer knows that his side have everything to play for this season and he must produce a trophy or a league victory by the end of the campaign or he will likely be shown the door.
Many have criticized him for some underwhelming periods but the Norwegian always seems to be able to produce the required result when things are genuinely on the line and a victory in the opening contest against Leeds should be able to set the right tone.
Look for a classic United victory - 1-0 with a penalty scored by Bruno Fernandes would surprise nobody.
