Leicester, the team that unexpectedly won the league title in 2016 and in the following years regularly played in the groups of the Champions League or the Europa League, seems to have returned to the status of a small team: the Foxes have collected only one point in the first four stages (three defeats in the last three games) and occupies the last place in the rating.

The team trained by Brendan Rodgers did not achieve all their goals last season, when they finished the championship in only 8th place.

In addition, Leicester have failed to make any major transfers this summer and have also lost Danish goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel (out-of-contract to Nice), so fans have every reason to worry about staying in the Premier League.

Manchester United, on the other hand, overcame a disastrous start to the season (1-2 at home to Brighton and 0-4 away to Brentford) with two important wins: 2-1 at home to Liverpool and 1-0 away from Southampton, in both matches Cristiano Ronaldo remained on the bench.

Erik ten Heg is starting to dream of a TOP 4 again, especially after Tyler Malacia (left back, Feyenoord), Christian Eriksen (central midfield, Brentford) and Lisandro Martinez (central defender, Ajax, Amsterdam) , and a few days ago Casemiro (central midfielder, Real Madrid) arrived at Old Trafford.

In the last 10 direct matches, “Leicester” won three times, “Manchester United” won four games and three meetings ended in a draw.

However, the Devils are winless in their last five straight games, and last season Leicester won 4-2 at home and drew 1-1 away in the second leg.

Superbet offers odds of 1.55 that both teams will score in the match between Leicester and Manchester United.
