THE PREDICTION
Man Utd’s fixture pile-up due to the rescheduling of their recently postponed fixture vs Liverpool has understandably drew the ire of Man Utd boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who will likely have no choice but to rotate heavily here against Leicester with Liverpool visiting Old Trafford just two days later. This could provide Brendan Rodgers’ side with a huge opportunity to secure a vital win in their quest to secure Champions League football next season. However, with the FA Cup final vs Chelsea on the horizon this weekend, the Foxes’ players could easily find themselves distracted heading into this one, which may prove extremely detrimental to their chances in this match. A shock 2-4 defeat at the hands of Newcastle this past Friday will have surely focused minds amongst the Leicester squad, with their top four spot still not secure heading into the final stretch of fixtures this season. When taking into the account the expected rotation here from a Man Utd perspective, Leicester are more than capable of picking up at least a point at Old Trafford and having not lost against the Red Devils in their last two fixtures against them in all competitions, the visitors double chance may prove the smart play.
