On February 19, Old Trafford (Manchester) will host the match of the 24th round of the English Premier League, in which Manchester United will compete with Leicester. The battle will start at 15:00 CET.

Manchester United

The team follows its incredibly rich way. It somehow became a hostage to its own success. Due to the fact that “the Red Devils” win the cup matches, they have to play every 3-4 days (Manchester United has already reached the EFL Cup final). Moreover, the Premier League matches, which had not been held in the autumn, were scheduled to be played at the “window”. And now there is a confrontation with Barcelona in the first round of the Europa League in the mid-week. That battle resulted in a bright 2-2 draw at Camp Nou, and it goes without saying that the home match will be more than difficult. There is no surprise that misfires are being continued – the matches with Crystal Palace and Leeds resulted only in draws. Nevertheless, the statistics of ten Hag's wards in winter are impressive, and it was not in vain that they managed to rise and gain a foothold in the top 3.

Leicester

The club spends the season with the decline, even comparing to the previous one, which was also unsuccessful – it lost the chances for European competitions. Frankly speaking, “the Foxes” have already suffered from several disastrous segments during this season. On the other hand, it is a bad idea to underestimate Brendan Rodgers’ wards. They, for example, reached the semi-finals of the EFL Cup, where the team lost to Newcastle (and in another tournament, the club has recently defeated Walsall). Moreover, after 4 defeats in a row after a long pause in the Premier League, they got a spectacular 2-2 draw in the struggle with Brighton, and then, Leicester won the matches against ambitious opponents. First, the club, having conceded twice, was able to make a 4-2 success in the game with Aston Villa in Birmingham. And then, it beat Tottenham with a confident 4-1 score.

The statistics of head-to-head matches

Leicester has not been defeated for 5 head-to-head matches in a row – 3 wins and a couple of draws. But in September, Sancho scored the only goal at King Power Stadium.

Predictions

Bookmakers believe that Leicester has little chance of taking points at Old Trafford. We recommend betting on the victory of Manchester United with “a -1 goal handicap” (odd: 2.0).
