Manchester United vs Leicester City: Prediction and Betting Tips

Manchester United ending their season strongly

After postponing their match against Liverpool last week, Manchester United now have to play three games in five days. They beat Aston Villa in Villa Park on Sunday and delayed their city rival’s Manchester City’s champion announcement after cutting their lead to ten points and The Red Devils can decrease City’s lead to seven if they beat Leicester on Tuesday.

United have guaranteed a Champions League spot for next season but it will take a miracle for them to win the Premier League title. Solaskjaer’s team are in great form winning their last five of their six home games and drawing one, scoring 21 goals in the process. Reaching the Europa League final last week, United are having a great end to their season.

Leicester need to find back good form

The Foxes have seen their form dip in their recent matches with just two wins in six matches. This made Brendan Rodgers who were once looked to be guaranteed a Champions League spot for next season, drop back to fourth place and now have to battle with the likes of West Ham, Liverpool, Tottenham, and Everton.

Given the importance of the match, Old Trafford is the last place they want to visit for such a game as The Foxes have just one win in their last 22 visits and haven’t scored more than one goal in any of their last ten trips. Rodgers can see a positive in his team’s away scoring form as Leicester have scored in 15 of their 17 away matches this season.

Key Stats

• Manchester United have won their last five home games.
• Leicester have won three of their last seven away games
• United have scored in all of their last ren home games
• Leicester’s last 11 games have ended with two goals or more
• 56% of United’s home games saw BTTS
• 65% of Leicester’s away games saw BTTS

Manchester United vs Leicester City Prediction

The Red Devil’s focus will be more on the Europa LeagueFinal as it is almost their only chance of winning a trophy this season. Solskjaer may rest some of his players for this match as they have another game on Thursday against Liverpool.

Leicester need to get at least a point here if they want to stay intact with their current fourth position. Brendan Rodgers must forget his team’s horrible past record at Old Trafford and battle for that all-important Champions League spot.

We think both teams have the incentive to score and thus we will back that outcome.

For our secondary prediction, we think Leicester may play for a point and may get it if United field a weakened side. We will back away win or draw.
