Leeds United will travel to Old Trafford on Wednesday evening, for the 8pm Premier League kick-off against Manchester United.
Ahead of the match, those attending are asked to read the following important supporter information.
Supporters are reminded that match tickets issued with the original date are NOT valid for tonight’s game; all have been cancelled and deactivated.
The Leeds United ticket office have dispatched new tickets for tonight’s fixture to all supporters who purchased tickets for the original date. If you have not received a new replacement match ticket, then please contact the Ticket Office on 0371 334 1992 before 5.15pm.
Please do not travel without a match ticket. If you are collecting tickets from Old Trafford, you will be required to show photo ID.
There will be a severely reduced rail offering for Leeds supporters after the fixture tonight due to engineering works. Supporters seeking to return to Leeds by train should head to Manchester Victoria (not Piccadilly) where there will be a limited rail service. It will call at all stops but will be a long journey home.
On the day of the game, a number of essential works are taking place on rail services which may impact travel to the fixture.
Engineering work is taking place between Leeds and Mirfield, closing all lines.
Northern
Trains that usually run via Mirfield will be diverted to run via Bradford Interchange, and will not call at Morley, Batley, Dewsbury, Mirfield or Brighouse. Buses will replace trains between Leeds and Halifax.
TransPennine Express
Services between Manchester and Hull will start and terminate at Leeds.
Pre-match, there will be up to 5 trains per hour direct from Leeds to Manchester Victoria. However, post-match there are only 4 direct trains back to Leeds from Manchester Victoria departing at 22:15, 22:30, 22:57 and 23:23.
We strongly advise fans allow plenty of time to travel to the ground and check the status of their train before travelling using the National Rail website.
Metrolink
To travel to the ground, Leeds fans should board the Altrincham Tram at Victoria Station, Piccadilly Station or Piccadilly Gardens and get off at Old Trafford Metrolink stop.
A six-minute service will be operating on the Altrincham line for fans travelling from the city.
Driving
Congestion on the roads close to Old Trafford will start to build from around 6pm as fans start to make their way to the ground.
Fans may want to consider parking at Metrolink Park and Ride site;
Parkway
(Exit M60 at Junction 9 or 10) and then taking a Deansgate-Castlefield bound tram to the ground, alighting at the Wharfside stop. This should take less than 15 minutes with a five-minute walk from the stop to the away fans’ entrance.
