Leicester City continue their fight to avoid an immediate return to the English second division on Sunday when they face Manchester United at Old Trafford.
Under the watch of interim head coach Ruud van Nistelrooy, Man United have played two games since the sacking of Erik ten Hag and will face PAOK in the Europa League before the visit of Leicester City this weekend. The Red Devils put in a fantastic display against Leicester in the League Cup, booking a place in the quarter-finals of the competition with a 5:2 victory and also showed glimpses of their best in the draw with Chelsea in the Premier League last weekend.
Leicester City are one of the three newly promoted in the English top flight and came in as winners of the Championship. The Foxes have shown a good fighting spirit by picking most of their 10 points so far this season from losing positions. A recent example is the draw with fellow newcomers Ipswich Town at Portman Road where substitute Jordan Ayew equalised in the fourth minute of extra time.
Manchester United vs Leicester City Betting Tips: Over 2.5 goals
One of the major reasons United are outside the top half of the Premier League table is their defence and the Red Devils boast just one clean sheet from their last nine matches. All but one of the three Premier League home matches played in that spell produced at least three goals.
Aside fighting spirit, Leicester City have excelled when it comes to scoring goals in recent weeks and I fancy that form to continue. The visitors scored in all their ten league games so far and almost as many games produced three or more goals.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

Leicester City team news
Jannik Vestergaard has not featured for Leicester City since October due to injury and Sunday’s trip to Old Trafford will come too soon for the defender.
With the Foxes not having any other injury concerns at the moment head coach Alan Tate may use most of the side that started the draw with Ipswich Town last time out.
