Manchester United host Leicester in Sunday’s first live Premier League game and armchair fans could be in for a treat.
United have been racking up the wins as they stay in touch at the top of the table while Brendan Rodgers’ Foxes have clicked into gear in the past couple of weeks to put further distance between them and that miserable run earlier in the season.
Their most recent outing was last weekend’s 4-1 win over Tottenham while the hosts left Barcelona on Thursday night after a 2-2 draw set up a mouth-watering return in Manchester next week.
That Europa League clash will come around soon enough. First, it’s the Foxes and a home win with both teams scoring at 19/10 is our opening Man Utd vs Leicester prediction.
Erik ten Hag was fairly happy after a share of the spoils at the Nou Camp, saying: “If you face number one of Spain in an away game and you are the dominant team, you can see this as a positive.”
But it wasn’t all praise from the United boss, who added: “The criticism is (be) more clinical, finish chances and that is what we didn’t do. Because in such a game, we created many chances. You can’t expect actually but we did.
“Then it’s a little bit disappointment that you didn’t score them. And I think we should have scored minimum four goals.”
Marcus Rashford took his club tally to 23 for the season, scoring for the fourth straight game, and he heads the betting for first and anytime scorers.
Fifteen of his total have been post-World Cup and his timing has been perfect as United have kicked on during that period with 12 wins, three draws and just one defeat in all competitions.
Take a punt on Rashford to make a fast start and back him for the first goal at 3/1 in the Man Utd vs Leicester odds.
Last United line-up: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Varane, Shaw, Malacia, Casemiro, Fernandes, Weghorst, Fred, Sancho, Rashford.
Unlike Ten Hag, Rodgers had no complaints about his attack last time out.
The big win over Spurs followed a 4-2 victory at Aston Villa, with Leicester now on a four-game unbeaten run.
After seeing off Spurs, Rodgers said: “It was a brilliant performance by the players. A really brave performance.
“To be as brave as the players were and commit to what they asked us to do, it was everything I want in a team – aggressive, strong, competitive. There were so many great attacking moments.
“Now we have the balance in the team, players coming back, we’re starting to see (the improvement). We have to keep this mentality and keep this consistency.”
Leicester remain in the bottom half – six points above the relegation zone – but there is a feeling a corner has been turned.
While they might leave Manchester empty-handed, expect them to go down fighting, so both teams to score in both halves at 9/1 completes our Man Utd vs Leicester betting tips.
Last Leicester line-up: Ward, Castagne, Souttar, Faes, Kristiansen, Mendy, Dewsbury-Hall, Tete, Maddison, Barnes, Iheanacho.
