Leeds United and Manchester United meet at Croke Park in Dublin on Wednesday in the first club football fixture ever staged at the 82,000-capacity stadium.

The Whites have been busy this summer, breaking their transfer record to sign goalkeeper James Trafford from Manchester City for £40m, while Tarik Muharemovic arrives to shore up the defence and Harry Wilson joins on a free transfer after a 10-goal, seven-assist campaign at Fulham.Manchester United arrive under Michael Carrick, appointed permanently in January after steering the club to a third-place finish and a return to the Champions League. The headline news is Marcus Rashford, in contention to make his first United appearance in 19 months after returning from loan spells at Aston Villa and Barcelona, while Bruno Fernandes is set to start and new midfield signing Youri Tielemans pushes for his first start since arriving. Lisandro Martínez remains the only senior absentee, still to return after Argentina’s World Cup final defeat.How to claim £40 in free bets with BetwayFollow our link to Betway and register as a new customer, then claim your £40 free bet package in three simple steps:Register as a new customer using our linkDeposit £10 using a debit cardPlace a single £10 qualifying bet at odds of evens (2.0) or higherOnce it settles, you’ll receive 4 x £10 free bets immediately (two Bet Builders, two Accas, each requiring a minimum of four legs at odds of 4.0 or higher).

Leeds have shipped plenty in pre-season already, including four at Anfield against Liverpool, while United’s likely front line of Bryan Mbeumo, Amad Diallo and a fit-again Fernandes carries more than enough quality to trouble a Leeds defence still finding its shape under new arrivals – and don’t rule out a cameo from Rashford.Over 2.5 goalsBryan Mbeumo to score anytimeA sold-out rivalry renewal that promises entertainment if not necessarily conclusive answers, with both sides using Dublin as a stepping stone toward the serious business of the Premier League season ahead.Understanding the offerTo qualify:Register as a new Betway customer ahead of Leeds vs Manchester United (18+, UK only) and select the offer on registrationDeposit £10 or more using a debit cardPlace a qualifying bet of at least £10 at minimum odds of evens (2.0)Once the bet settles, you’ll receive 4 x £10 free bets instantlyYou’ll get:4 x £10 free bets (2 x Bet Builders, 2 x Accas – each min 4 legs, odds 4.0+)All free bets valid for 7 daysDebit card deposits onlyKey terms and conditions of this Betway offer Debit card deposit only (certain methods excluded).
