Can Leeds United Avoid Relegation After Beating Manchester United?

Leeds United pulled off a famous 2-1 victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford on Monday night (13 April 2026).

Goals from Noah Okafor (5' and 29') gave Leeds a commanding first-half lead. Manchester United pulled one back through Casemiro in the 69th minute, but despite playing with 10 men after Lisandro Martínez’s red card, they couldn’t find an equaliser.

The result ended Leeds’ six-game winless run in the Premier League and delivered a huge psychological boost in their fight for survival.

With the win, Leeds moved onto 36 points from 32 games, sitting in 15th place and opening up a six-point gap above the relegation zone (with six matches remaining).
