How to watch Man Utd vs Leeds for FREE: Live streams for pre-season friendly
Watch Man Utd vs Leeds live streams as the Premier League rivals meet at Croke Park in Dublin for the first-ever club football fixture at the historic 82,300-capacity stadium. There is no love lost between these teams, so a victory would mean a little bit more than it would in any old pre-season friendly.
The Red Devils arrive in Ireland fresh from a four-match tour of Scandinavia, which finished with a 1-1 draw against PSG in Gothenburg on Saturday. Captain Bruno Fernandes made his first appearance of pre-season against the European champions, while manager Michael Carrick will hope midfielder Mason Mount is available after the Englishman picked up a knock at the weekend. Carrick can also call on nine players who have joined the group in Ireland, including Marcus Rashford, Kobbie Mainoo, Matheus Cunha and Benjamin Sesko. Should he feature, it will be the first time Rashford has worn United red since December 2024. After this game, the Red Devils face AC Milan – managed by their former boss Ruben Amorim – in Wroclaw, Poland, on Saturday, before visiting Hull in their Premier League opener on August 22.
Leeds have enjoyed a positive pre-season on and off the pitch, giving Whites fans plenty of reasons to be hopeful ahead of their first league match of the campaign at Nottingham Forest in 10 days’ time. Daniel Farke’s side followed wins over Sunderland and Liverpool on their US tour with a 2-0 victory over German side RB Leipzig at Elland Road last Saturday, with strikers Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Lukas Nmecha on target. Summer signings Harry Wilson and Tarik Muharemovic should again feature, while James Trafford could make his debut after the England goalkeeper’s switch from Man City for an initial £40m last week.
