Leicester City v Manchester United: match preview

Leicester City v Manchester United
Leicester City v Manchester United: probable starters in bold, contenders in light

The last time José Mourinho visited the King Power Stadium, in December 2015, he was sacked the following day. That was during his time in charge of Chelsea, when Leicester were on their way to winning the title. It seems like a distant memory now, and it is Ranieri, not Mourinho, who goes into this game under pressure. Depending on results elsewhere, Leicester could be in the bottom three by the time they kick off. United need a win to break a run of three draws. Stuart James
