University of Manchester vs University of Leeds

I have an offer for BSc Accounting and BAecon Accounting and Finance at Manchester, and BSc Accounting and Finance at leeds but I don't know which course to choose. I do want to pursue a career in finance and also land an industrial placement. My ultimate goal is to go into IB so which would be better? Leeds has more quantitative models with very good teaching quality from what I have heard but I am worried about the career prospects

Which would be better
