Leicester City’s unbeaten start to the new season faces a daunting prospect as the Foxes go to one of the most feared stadiums in England this weekend.
But Manchester United’s injury problems and the teetering form means the 2016 Premier League champions will fancy their chances at Old Trafford.
That said, United can’t afford a slip-up, for their rivals may just shoot beyond their reach even at this early stage in the season.

Manchester United Team News:
- Ole Gunnar Solskjaer confirmed in his pre-match press conference that both Paul Pogba and Anthony Martial are certain to miss the home clash against Leicester unless there is a miraculous recovery. We take that as out for the duo.
- Luke Shaw missed United’s last league game due to an injury and remains a doubt.
- Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Jesse Lingard both pulled out of their international assignments last week and are questionable.
- Eric Bailly and Timothy Fosu-Mensah remain long-term injury absentees.
Possible INs and OUTs of this game:
- Shaw’s absence means Ashley Young should start once again at left-back but if Wan-Bissaka misses the match, either Diego Dalot or Marcos Rojo may be asked to start at right-back.
- Also, Juan Mata and Mason Greenwood should start here, with the duo replacing Paul Pogba and Anthony Martial in the playing 11.
Manchester United Probable XI:
De Gea (GK), Young, Lindelof, Maguire, Rojo / Dalot / Wan-Bissaka, McTominay, Matic, Greenwood, Pereira, James, Rashford
Leicester City FC Team News:
- The visitors have no fresh injury concerns ahead of their trip to Old Trafford but Daniel Amertey and Matty James remain on the sideline.
- Centre-back and captain Wes Morgan is a doubt due to slight muscle injury.
Possible ins or outs of this game:
- Unlike hosts, Brendan Rodgers has the luxury of a fully-fit squad to choose from.
- Even if Wes Morgan was fit, Caglar Soyuncu would have started anyway at the back alongside Jonny Evans.
- The wing-backs, Ricardo Pereira and Ben Chilwell, should pick themselves, but it’s the midfield which is Leicester’s biggest strength.
- Youri Tielemans, Wilfried Ndidi and James Maddison are all available and will be starting the game.
Leicester City Probable XI:
Schmeichel (GK), Pereira, Evans, Soyuncu, Chilwell, Ndidi, Albrighton, Tielemans, Maddison, Barnes, Vardy
Likely to score:
- For Manchester United: Marcus Rashford, Daniel James
- For Leicester City: James Maddison, Jamie Vardy, Harrison Barnes
Captain and Vice-Captain Selection:
Jamie Vardy: Since Brendan Rodgers took over Leicester City, Vardy has scored the most goals in the Premier League. The Brendan Rodgers‘ effect.
Current Premier League season:
- Games: 04
- Goals: 03
- Assists: 01
Marcus Rashford: The young Red Devils started the season with a bang as he scored twice against Chelsea on the opening Premier League day. He will be looking to add goals to his tally here.
Current Premier League season:
- Games: 04
- Goals: 02
- Assists: 01
Daniel James: The next big thing to come out of Wales and Manchester United. Who knows he may very well emulate the greatest Welshman ever to play for United – Ryan Giggs.
Current Premier League season:
- Games: 03
- Goals: 03
James Maddison: The crafty Englishman is on the radar of many top clubs. And it’s the least he deserves following a solid last season and another top start to the current campaign. A depleted United side must be on its toes.
Current Premier League season:
- Games: 04
- Assists: 02
- Through Balls: Very Good
- Dribbling: Very Good
- Pace: Good
- Hold Up play: Very good
Suggested combination:
LEI vs MUN Dream11 potential winner:
It’s very hard for any team to get anything out of the trip from Old Trafford and we back the shorthanded Red Devils to get at least a draw in this match.
