Leeds United 1-3 Manchester City highlights: Whites defeated by Haaland double
and live on Freeview channel 276
The Whites are longer odds to win tonight’s game than Erling Haaland is to score a hat-trick, according to most bookmakers, as the Norwegian returns to the city of his birth. Kalvin Phillips is not expected to be involved, however, meaning Haaland will exclusively represent the visitors’ Leeds-born contingent.
United are 15th in the Premier League table, while Manchester City slipped to third over the weekend as high-flying Newcastle picked up where they left off before the World Cup with a resounding victory at Leicester.
