Manchester United will welcome Leicester City to Old Trafford this Sunday for the 24th round of the 2022/23 Premier League season.
The Red Devils come into this tie off the back of a disappointing 2-2 draw with Barcelona in the Europa League. Despite going home with a point from the game, goal-scorer Marcus Rashford revealed that his side felt like they lost the game.
They will look to take three points here, though, and keep their slim chances of winning the PL title alive. Erik ten Hag’s side are on the fringes of a title race as they are just five points off top-spot ahead of the round.
The boss has been reluctant to label his side as contenders. Still, you would back them to at least keep up the pressure on Manchester City and Arsenal with another three-point haul against Leicester City, given they’ve won 13 of their last 14 home games in all competitions (D1).

But Leicester are a team in form, having won their last two games by a combined scoreline of 8-3. The Foxes eased relegation fears with two consecutive comeback wins over Aston Villa and Tottenham in the Premier League.
So they will come into this game in a confident mode. They also have a good record in this fixture, having won three of the last six H2Hs (D2, L1). Yet the fact they have yet to keep a league clean sheet since the World Cup restart means they cannot be backed for a direct win here.
So the best prediction for this game is for both teams to score. Click here for best BTTS/GG predictions.
