Manchester United vs Leicester City

Manchester United United have enjoyed a memorable 2020/21 Premier League campaign, which is set to end in a second-placed finish. A few missteps have negated the possibility of a title tilt, although the Red Devils have still made positive progress under the tutelage of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, having not been beaten in any of their last 14 top-flight outings, with the latest being a come-from-behind 3-1 win over Aston Villa.

Leicester City, on the other hand, seem to be going through their nightmares of last season all over again, despite it initially appearing that they had learned their lessons. Indeed, a shock 4-2 defeat to Newcastle United this past weekend is proof of the same, with the Foxes now down to 4th on the table, although the gap to fifth remains the same, courtesy West Ham United’s loss to Everton.

The reverse fixture, played at the King Power Stadium back in December, saw Leicester City twice come from a goal down to hold Manchester United to a 2-2 draw.
