Leicester vs Manchester United Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by Kennedy Kechula | in Premier League Predictions
Relegation-threatened Leicester City will welcome Manchester United when the English Premier League resumes this weekend with matchday 29. The hosts come into this match sitting second from bottom, while their visitors are in 14th spot and with a 17-point advantage over them. This round’s predictions don’t favor Leicester City.
Aside from seeking to boost their survival hopes, the Foxes are also seeking a first win over the Red Devils since 2021. Victory for United, on the other hand, will extend their winning streak against Leicester to six. As a result, bookies strongly favour United to win this match.
This is the fourth and final meeting between Leicester and United this season. The first three encounters have all had the Red Devils as hosts. Both teams’ managers are under pressure to win here. However, it is Manchester United legend Ruud van Nistelrooy who will have fears for his Leicester City job, with the international break approaching.

Leicester - Manchester United: Form Analysis
Leicester City aim to avoid relegation to the Championship for a second time in three seasons. Ruud van Nistelrooy’s men are tied with third from bottom Ipswich Town on 17 points.
They have won four matches and lost a whopping 19 times. Only bottom-placed Southampton have lost more games.
The Foxes have won just three times in the 17 matches they have contested since van Nistelrooy’s appointment in December. They have lost six straight games and only managed one goal in this stretch.
Leicester are returning home after two games on the road. They were defeated 1-0 by Chelsea last weekend.
Manchester United haven't won consecutive league matches this season!
Manchester United are faring much better than their hosts but have struggled with inconsistency throughout the season. The record English champions are having one of their worst top-flight campaigns.
They are yet to hit double digits in wins, and lost 12 times. The Red Devils haven’t won consecutive fixtures in the league and now seem to only be fighting for a top-half finish.
Ruben Amorim’s men have accumulated 34 points and are 12 points from the European places. United, who drew with Arsenal at home last time out in the league, are coming off midweek European action.
A 4-1 victory over visiting Real Sociedad confirmed their progression to the Europa League quarters.

Leicester & Manchester United Squad Analysis
If Leicester are to strengthen their chances of survival, they have to first start scoring. They haven’t scored in four straight games.
Veteran forward Jamie Vardy is the team’s leading scorer in the league with seven goals and three assists. He, however, hasn’t scored since grabbing the equalizer in a 2-1 away win over Tottenham in January.
The Englishman has been involved in seven goals in 16 league appearances against United. With an xG of 8.78 this season and 43% of his 44 shots being on target, Vardy will hope to bounce back here.
United’s winter signing Patrick Dorgu is suspended for this match.
Manchester United have relied heavily on captain Bruno Fernandes this season. The midfielder has been the team's standout performer and has contributed to 28 goals across all competitions.
Fernandes has scored 15 goals with seven coming in the league. The Portuguese international bagged a hat trick in the Europa League victory over Real Sociedad in midweek.
He has also scored three times against Leicester this season. Fernandes has attempted 71 shots in the league, 32% of them being on target and he carries an xG of 8.32.
