THE PREDICTION
Manchester United going head-to-head against Leicester City is the perfect way to start Boxing Day, with two exciting sides in top form setting this game up to be a thriller. A win for United will see them overtake Leicester in the league and move up into second place, in what could, quite remarkably, be the start of a title charge for the Reds. United come into this one off the back of an impressive 6-2 hammering over Leeds whilst Leicester beat Tottenham 2-0 in their previous league game. However, their game against the Foxes will be completely different to their encounter with Leeds, with the two sides tactically set up in very different ways, so don’t expect another six-goal special from Ole’s men. But, although the game should be a close one, it wouldn't take a Christmas miracle for United to win this one.
