Former Premier League referee Dermot Gallagher has admitted that he believes Casemiro deserved a red card for his actions during Manchester United vs Crystal Palace, with the Brazilian now missing both matches against Leeds United this week.
Leeds face Man United on Wednesday night in the first of a Premier League doubleheader against Erik ten Hag's side. A trip to Old Trafford comes first, where backroom staff trio Michael Skubala, Paco Gallardo and Chris Armas will be in the dugout in place of the recently departed Jesse Marsch.
The Red Devils will be without key midfielder Casemiro for Wednesday night's game and the return leg at Elland Road on Sunday after he was sent off during Man United's 2-1 win against Crystal Palace on the weekend. The 30-year-old was shown a straight red card for putting his hands around the throat of Eagles midfielder Will Hughes.
