Manchester United must avoid falling into Leeds trap following Jesse Marsch sacking

The 'new manager bounce' is a thing in football. It has always been a thing in football. It will continue to be a thing in football.

For Leeds United, they will be hoping that the departure of manager Jesse Marsch will give them the boost they need for their upcoming clash with Manchester United. It remains to be seen who will replace the American on a permanent basis, but for now, three of the club's coaches will take charge of Wednesday's clash with the Reds.

While the Whites don't technically have a new manager, they will still be hoping for the bounce that typically comes after dismissing the man in charge. The sheer presence of a fresh face on the touchline could certainly give them a lift on Wednesday night - especially considering that they have not won in the Premier League since early November.
