Manchester United Leicester City betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This match puts on the pitch two teams with completely different budgets, but there may be a surprise. The away team have not yet been beaten in the competition and have made very successful displays, one in an away draw against Chelsea. Manchester United have a great quality squad, however, they have failed a lot in the defensive part, and in this game, many difficulties are expected. That said, we believe that both Manchester United and Leicester City will score goals in this match.

It should be noted that Daniel James is the most important man in the tactical scheme of the hosts, since the midfielder is very competent in the offensive process. For this game the manager cannot count on the injured Pogba, Luke Shaw and Diogo Dalot. In addition to these athletes, manager still has in doubt Lingard, Bissaka and Martial.
