Amorim expects hostile environment as Leeds fixture looms
Leeds United host old rivals Manchester United in the Premier League as Ruben Amorim’s under-pressure side prepare to face a hostile atmosphere at Elland Road.
Resurgent Leeds have turned their season around with a six-game unbeaten run under Daniel Farke, holding champions Liverpool to an Anfield stalemate on Thursday.
They have taken seven points from their last three home games, too, and will now be hoping to add Manchester United to the list as the old foes meet again in the top flight.
After a dismal 1-1 draw with rock-bottom Wolves , the heat is once again on Amorim and the Manchester United boss cut a frustrated figure when questioned about the club’s January transfer plans this week.
The visitors continue to be depleted with captain Bruno Fernandes sidelined and a host of players at the Africa Cup of Nations and Amorim said he cannot afford to let any more players leave this month.
