After 17 long months, Old Trafford will be full again when Manchester United take on Leeds on Saturday... with 750 sanitation stations, 1,500 rail seats, new changing rooms and a digital ticketing system, the Red Devils are ready to host 75,000 fans

The Theatre of Dreams is slowly beginning to wake up.

It's been 17 months since Old Trafford last played host to a capacity crowd. That day Manchester United beat Manchester City 2-0 in the Premier League but days later the doors were shut as Covid-19 took hold.

Now there is light at the end of the tunnel. Around 30,000 and 55,000 United fans returned to their home in recent friendlies against Brentford and Everton but on Saturday, in their Premier League opener against Leeds, it will be full again.
