We simulated Leicester City vs Manchester United to get a score prediction

Leicester City vs Man United score predicted using FIFA 21

To set up this simulation, we used kick-off mode within FIFA 21 but didn't select a team to control; we then selected the teams and watched the match play out by itself, to give us a prediction.

The AI difficulty was set to legendary, with the line-up updated with the latest transfers, injuries and suspensions.

We predict that Leicester City could set up in a 5-2-1-2 formation, with their line-up as follows: Schmeichel; Castagne, Fofana, Evans, Soyuncu, Thomas; Ndidi, Tielemans; Perez, Iheanacho, Vardy.

We predict that United could set up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with their line-up as follows: Henderson; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Shaw; Fred, McTominay; James, Fernandes, Pogba; Greenwood.

This FIFA 21 simulation was a poor game overall, but two pieces of quality were enough to win the game for United.

The first came in the 18th minute, with Paul Pogba cutting inside and playing a pass into Bruno Fernandes, who unleashed an unstoppable finish into the far corner to make it 1-0.

The second piece of quality came 15 minutes from time as Fernandes turned provider and produced a great pass for Mason Greenwood, who finished clinically to put the game to bed late on.

Predicted FIFA 21 score: Leicester City 0-2 United

Here are the full time stats:

FIFA 21 predicts that it might be a poor game to watch and Leicester City may have more possession, but United should still have enough quality to win this tie.
