Leicester vs Manchester Utd Prediction & Betting tips
The King Power Stadium will be sold out on Sunday afternoon when Leicester City plays the game against Manchester United in-house. Ole Gunnar Solskjær suffered a point loss on Tuesday with United, while Leicester City took a good one point at Liverpool a day later.
Leicester City:
Leicester City can laugh again after the 1-1 draw of Wednesday night visiting Liverpool. At Anfield, The Foxes got stranded early in the game by a goal from Liverpool striker Sadio Mané, but Leicester City dragged a draw from the heat by a goal in the 45th minute of Harry Maguire. With that, Leicester City was the first non-top club in the Premier League to score points against the leader of the English football league. The point that Leicester City picked Claude Puel also very good use, because the Frenchman is under pressure. The next two games are against Manchester United and next weekend the game at Tottenham Hotspur will be on the program and The Foxes will have to get at least one point in those two matches.
The pressure on Puel has everything to do with the recent results of Leicester City. They were dramatic until the 1-1 draw at Anfield. The Foxes lost their last three games and in those duels Leicester City was also eliminated by Newport County in the FA Cup. Next, Leicester lost to Southampton (1-2) and Wolverhampton (4-3) and the results ensured that the knives were sharpened in the English press. The last weeks there was already talked about a replacement of Puel, but by the game of last Wednesday, the Frenchman again just as air.
Manchester United:
That Ole Gunnar Solskjær can not conjure became clear this week for the first time. The Norwegian started at Manchester United with eight wins in a row and a ninth appeared to be added. Manchester United finally played against Burnley on Tuesday-evening, which is a low flyer in the Premier League. Yet The Red Devils had a very difficult time with the number seventeen of the competition. In fact, Manchester United still faced a 0-2 deficit five minutes before time. The Red Devils eventually left a point in the game with Burnley through goals by Paul Pogba and Victor Lindelöf, but it did not matter whether Solskjær was upset against his first loss.
The draw against Burnley is obviously not a disaster for Solskjær. It is a shame, because in a win over The Clarets, Manchester United had now been on an equal footing with Arsenal and Chelsea. Now The Red Devils still have two points less than the two superpowers from London and Manchester United is still the least performing top team in the Premier League. The current sixth place would also mean at the end of the ride that there would not be any European football at Old Trafford next season and that is a disaster for The Red Devils. Solskjær has to qualify for the Champions League with Manchester United, but if that does not work then the Europa League is a nice alternative.
