How to watch and follow Leicester v United

Manchester United are back in Premier League action on Sunday, as we travel to the King Power Stadium to face Leicester City.

Ruben Amorim’s side come into the encounter with the Foxes off the back of a convincing 4-1 win over Real Sociedad on Thursday, that helped secured our passage to the last eight of the Europa League via a 5-2 aggregate scoreline.

But attention now swiftly turns back to our league campaign, as a reunion with Ruud van Nistelrooy awaits this weekend.

United haven’t had much time to prepare for the trip to the East Midlands but earning another three points is top of the agenda.

Scroll down for all the details you need ahead of the encounter…

HOW TO WATCH AND FOLLOWSunday’s game will kick-off at 19:00 GMT and it is set to be broadcast live on Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League.

MUTV will provide extensive build-up before the game with Zarah Connolly joined by Danny Simpson. Our pre-match show begins at 17:55 GMT.

Live radio commentary will also be available on ManUtd.com and in the United App, provided to you by the dynamic duo of Liam Bradford and Ben Thornley.

LATEST TEAM NEWSAs confirmed by Amorim on Friday, Mason Mount could be fit enough to make the bench against the relegation-threatened Foxes.

Manuel Ugarte was an unused substitute and could return, as well as defender Harry Maguire, with the boss insisting ‘we will see’ if the former Leicester defender is fit enough.

Kobbie Mainoo is still a few weeks away from fitness, while Leny Yoro will be unavailable until April. He has joined an extensive injury list which includes the likes of Amad, Lisandro Martinez and Luke Shaw.

Patrick Dorgu will have to miss out too, as he completes the final game of his Premier League suspension.

OUR PREVIOUS MEETINGS WITH LEICESTERThe Reds and Leicester have gone head-to-head on 140 occasions, with United emerging victorious 73 times – and our recent form against the Foxes makes for healthy viewing, as we have won the past five meetings in all competitions.

That included February’s Emirates FA Cup fourth-round success at Old Trafford as Harry Maguire powered home a vital last-minute winner.

This will be the fourth time we’ll have faced Leicester this season as we also beat them 5-2 in the Carabao Cup and 3-0 in the league when Van Nistelrooy was in the Reds dugout.

Let’s hope we can spoil Ruud’s party yet again on Sunday, with his side still battling to remain in England’s top-flight this term.
