Leicester host Manchester United in the Premier League’s late kick off with the Foxes hoping to end a terrible run of form.
Ruud van Nistelrooy’s men have lost 11 of their last 12 league games with their only victory in that run coming against Tottenham at the end of January. They sit 19th in the table and are nine points away from safety with time running out to avoid an immediate drop back into the Championship.
Manchester United, meanwhile, are 15th with just one league win from their last five games. But, they are on a three-game unbeaten run in the league and enter the game on the back of securing a spot in the Europa League quarter-finals.
United have beaten Leicester three times already this season and Ruben Amorim’s men will be confident of doing so again.

18:56Ruben Amorim, meanwhile, is a key proponent of using a back three and makes three changes from United’s 4-1 win over Real Sociedad on Thursday, with Casemiro and Joshua Zirkzee benched and Patrick Dorgu suspended. In come Manuel Ugarte, Christian Eriksen and Victor Lindelof; the latter making his 186th Premier League appearance in red.

18:51Leicester’s 1-0 defeat at Chelsea last time out was their fifth on the spin, but Van Nistelrooy has named an unchanged side for this clash and continues with a new-look back three of Wout Faes, Conor Coady and Luke Thomas in the Foxes’ defence.

18:41Leicester, meanwhile, are firmly lodged in the relegation places and sit second-bottom of the Premier League table, a whopping nine points from safety after five losses on the bounce without scoring a single goal. Ruud van Nistelrooy’s move from the Old Trafford dugout hasn’t yielded an uptick in results whatsoever, and anything other than a victory could all-but seal their fate.

18:36The Red Devils may still be mired in lowly mid-table and come into this game sat 15th, but Ruben Amorim’s side appear to be over the worst of their dismal form and are unbeaten in their last three league games, drawing 1-1 with Arsenal after a 3-2 win over Ipswich, and progressing to the Europa League quarter-finals with a 4-1 victory over Real Sociedad in midweek.
