The 20-time Premier League champion, Manchester United were first after the first half of the season, but couldn't secure the leadership and finished second, 12 points behind the first line. Over 38 rounds, Manchester United chalked up 21 victories and 11 draws, scoring a total of 74 points.

Mand United have performed brilliantly in attack - they scored 73 goals. Fernandes became the top scorer of the club (18 goals).

On May 26, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's charges played in the Europa League final, where they lost the second most important trophy of the continent to Villarreal in a dramatic penalty shootout.

Leeds United

Last season Leeds returned to the Premier League after 16 years of absence. The team started off very powerfully, but eventually lost focus and finished in ninth place. However, such a result can be considered a success for a team that just got promoted.

The Peacocks won 18 games and drew 5 matches, scoring 59 points. Leeds had an impressive winning streak at the end of the season: they defeated Tottenham (3:1), Burnley (4:0), Southampton (2:0), and West Bromwich (3:1) in a row. But overall, Leeds demonstrates the worst defensive performance among the Top 10 teams.

Leeds had seven test matches before the start of the 2021/2022 season but won only one of them.

The squad was strengthened by midfielder Jack Harrison, who moved from Man City (12.8 million), Junior Firpo from Barcelona (15 million), and Christopher Claesson from Valerenga (2 million).

Shackleton, Firpo, and Llorente will not be able to play in this round.
