class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Red Devils' midfield talisman scored twice when his side won the reverse fixture 6-2 at Old Trafford and our tipster is backing him to net again
Plenty of goals look set to be on the cards when Leeds United host rivals Manchester United at Elland Road in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.
The Red Devils recorded a stunning 6-2 win when the sides met at Old Trafford back in December, effectively putting the game to bed with three strikes inside 20 minutes.
Bruno Fernandes made it 3-0 that day before also netting later on to take the score to 6-1 and is bet365’s 13/10 (2.30) favourite to increase his top-flight tally this season to 17 goals.
Edinson Cavani looks set to start up-front after scoring in each of his last three games for Man Utd and may be a popular selection at 13/10 (2.30) to make it four in a row.
It has not been the most fruitful of seasons for Mason Greenwood so far but he will be high in confidence after a double against Burnley last time out and is 13/10 (2.30) to net again.

Marcus Rashford has tallied 20 goals for United this campaign, just three short of his best ever return, and is priced at 13/10 (2.30) with bet365.
Two of Scott McTominay’s four Premier League goals this season came in the reverse fixture when he struck twice inside the opening three minutes and is a 5/1 (6.0) shot to strike yet again.
For Leeds, it is no surprise to see Patrick Bamford at 6/4 (2.50) to score anytime and add to his 14 goals this season, although just one of those has come in the last seven games.
Raphinha’s participation is in doubt but may prove to be a worthy choice at 3/1 (4.0), having established himself as one the division’s trickiest wingers during his time in West Yorkshire
Also in the same boat in terms of injury, Rodrigo is also 3/1 (4.0) although his return of just three goals this season makes him considerably less appealing.
Manchester City loanee Jack Harrison remains a constant threat on the left wing and can be backed at a seemingly generous 7/2 (4.50) after striking against Sheffield United two weeks ago.
Versatile midfielder Stuart Dallas has earned the plaudits of fans and coaches alike and his 15/2 (8.50) price certainly lends itself to at least a speculative punt, having scored a brace against Man City two weeks ago and also netted when these sides met at Old Trafford in December.
