Ruben Amorim’s Manchester United turn their attention to the cut and thrust of the Premier League again here, as they travel to Leicester City and their former manager Ruud van Nistelrooy. The Foxes have been in freefall of late and they look to be spiralling towards a return to the Championship, but they tend to play their best stuff at the King Power Stadium. United have Real Sociedad to contend with in the Europa League first and they will be feeling the full force of the fixture list ahead of this one.

Leicester City vs Manchester United Analysis
Both of these sides will be looking for three points, in what promises to be an excellent game for both punters and EPL betting sites.
Leicester City
Ruud van Nistelrooy looks to have run his race as Leicester City manager, with the Foxes continuing to plug away in the Premier League but ultimately, failing to pick up any meaningful results. The gap between themselves and safety is now 6 points, and they need to start winning games like this if they are to have any chance of staying up. The Foxes were undone by a very controversial goal when the sides met in the FA Cup last month and they will look to draw inspiration from that result here.
Team news: James Justin, Harry Souttar and Abdul Fatawu will miss out again for the Foxes here.
Leicester City Predicted Lineup:
Hermansen, Ricardo, Faes, Okoli, Kristiansen, Winks, Soumare, El Khannouss, Ayew, Decordova-Reid & Vardy.
Manchester United
Silverware possibilities for Manchester United remain limited to just the Europa League this season and the Red Devils will need to reset following their encounter with Real Sociedad ahead of this one. Premier League form has been patchy at best this season for United, who continue to languish in the bottom half of the table and a recent injury crisis has not helped their cause either. Winning games remains the optimum mantra for United and their fans though and they start as strong favourites for this one with most punters and Premier League betting sites.
Team news: Mason Mount, Luke Shaw, Jonny Evans, Harry Maguire, Amad & Lisandro Martinez will all miss this one for United.
Manchester United Predicted Lineup:
Onana, Dalot, Mazraoui, De Ligt, Yoro, Dorgu, Casemiro, Eriksen, Fernandes, Garnacho & Zirkzee.
Leicester City vs Manchester United Prediction
This should be a very entertaining game at the King Power, between two teams who have been very tough to predict in recent times. For the Foxes, relegation currently feels inevitable, making this one a bit of a free hit in their season. United meanwhile are under the pump in every game they play but should pick up a gritty win on their travels here.
Prediction: Manchester United to win the match – 9/10 (-109) – Rhino Bet.
Leicester City vs Manchester United – The Ultimate Bet
Manchester United to win & BTTS – 19/10 (+190) – Fitzdares
Both sides will look to play on the front foot in this one and with some good attacking talents in both squads, United could come out on top in a good game for the neutral.
