Leicester City vs Man United Prediction, Lineups and Odds: 12/1 double for Sunday's night clash
Leicester City meet Man United on Sunday night at the King Power Stadium in a Premier League clash, live on Sky Sports Main Event, at 7pm.
Matthew O’Regan is on hand with his match preview for Leicester vs Manchester United with bets of 6/5 and 12/1.
Leicester City vs Man United Predictions
Leicester sit six points away from safety after a disastrous run of form that has seen them lose 12 of their last 13 games, with their only win coming away at Tottenham. With The Foxes in financial disarray, relegation could spell disaster, but their current form gives no hope of survival.
The sides have already met three times this season, with Manchester United running out 5-2 winners in the Carabao Cup: 3-0 in the Premier League and 2-1 in the FA Cup. The Red Devils are unbeaten in the last six meetings against the Foxes.
Manchester United come into this game fresh off of a dominant 4-1 win over Real Sociedad in the Europa League, making it six games unbeaten (in normal time). Ruben Amorim has struggled to get a tune out of the stuttering squad thus far, but the signs are there that he is stamping his authority on the side. Joshua Zirkzee looked untouchable in the Thursday game so will be brimming with confidence.
While the results under Steve Cooper weren’t ideal, The Foxes scored in 11 of their 12 Premier League games under him, only failing to score at Old Trafford. Van Nistelrooy managed to scrape four points from West Ham and Brighton in his opening two matches but has struggled since. Leicester have since failed to score in ten of their next thirteen games, including drawing a blank in their last five.
Manchester United’s attacking impotence has been an issue this season, scoring the fifteenth fewest goals in the league. This season, they have seen BTTS NO land in 15/28 games.
