Match preview: Leicester vs Manchester United

Leicester and Manchester United face off at King Power Stadium in a match of the 29th round of the Premier League. In the last encounter between these teams in this competition, on 10 November 2024, Manchester United secured a 3-0 victory at home. The head-to-head history at this ground suggests a balance, with 1 draw and 2 wins for each side over the last 5 matches. However, in the last confrontation at this stadium, in a Premier League match on 1 September 2022, Manchester United emerged victorious with a 1-0 scoreline, as Jadon Sancho netted the only goal. It is important to note the home/away discrepancy, as both teams have shown significantly different results, depending on where they play.

Team analysis: Leicester

After 4 wins, 5 draws, and 19 losses, the home team is positioned 19th, having accrued 17 points. In their most recent outing, they lost 1-0 to Chelsea away, following a previous defeat against West Ham United, where they lost 2-0. Leicester has struggled significantly in away matches, recording only 2 wins, 2 draws, and 11 losses, netting 14 goals and conceding 38. At home, their record stands at 4 wins, 2 draws, and 9 losses, with 20 goals scored and 28 conceded. Throughout the league, Leicester has managed just 4 points from a possible 30, with only 1 victory, 1 draw, and 8 losses in their last 10 games at home.

In this competition, they have lost their last 6 home matches and remain winless in their last 7 at King Power Stadium. The most common score at half-time in these home matches has been 0-1, occurring 6 times in 14 games. The team has been defensively vulnerable, conceding in all their last 10 games, and their attack has faltered, failing to score in 8 of their last 10 league matches. There is a trend towards high-scoring matches in their home games, as 13 of the last 14 have featured over 1.5 goals. Leicester rarely takes the lead, having scored first in just 5 of their last 28 Premier League games, managing to hold that lead in only 3 and winning 2 by full-time. Out of 28 games, they have only turned around the score in the 2 instances in which they conceded first. Notably, in their last 14 home matches, they scored 4 of their 11 goals between the 76th and 90th minutes.

The Leicester City team heads into this encounter off the back of a 1-0 defeat at Chelsea. Ruud Van Nistelrooy’s side typically sets up in a 3-4-3 formation, featuring Jamie Vardy, Patson Daka, and Bilal El Khannouss as the attacking trio. Midfielder Wilfried Ndidi serves as the team’s playmaker, bridging the defence and attack. When pushing forward, Leicester typically favours their left flank, with James Justin providing width and depth. Abdul Fatawu is the only absentee for this match, as he is recovering from injury.

Team analysis: Manchester United

Following 9 wins, 7 draws, and 12 losses, the visitors find themselves in 14th place with 34 points. In their last match, they drew 1-1 with Arsenal at home; prior to that, they secured a 3-2 win against Ipswich Town. This team is also affected by home/away dynamics, appearing stronger at home, as evidenced by their last 30 matches which saw them record 4 wins, 6 draws, and 5 defeats away, scoring 19 goals while conceding 21. At home, they’ve secured 8 wins, 2 draws, and 5 losses, with a total of 29 goals scored and 23 conceded. Coming into this match, Manchester United won 4-1 against Real Sociedad at home, in a Europa League fixture. In the league, they’ve gained 10 points from the last 30 available, with 2 victories, 4 draws, and 4 losses over their last 10 away matches. At half-time, their most common scoreline in away games has been 0-0 (7 times in 13 games). Defensively, Manchester United has allowed goals in 9 of their last 10 games, indicating issues with defensive solidity, despite their attack regularly finding the net in 7 of their last 10 league matches. Of the 28 games in this competition, they have only turned the score around in 4 of the 17 matches where they conceded first. Notably, in their last 13 away games, they scored 7 of their 13 goals between the 76th and 90th minutes.

Manchester United arrives at this fixture following a 4-1 home win over Real Sociedad in the Europa League. In their last Premier League outing, they drew 1-1 with Arsenal. Rúben Amorim generally employs a 3-4-3 formation, with Joshua Zirkzee, Alejandro Garnacho, and Rasmus Hojlund taking on attacking roles. They often exploit the left side in their attacking play, with Diogo Dalot providing consistent width and support. The squad will be without Patrick Dorgu, who is suspended, alongside several players including Kobbie Mainoo, Amad Diallo, Altay Bayindir, Lisandro Martínez, Jonny Evans, Mason Mount, and Leny Yoro due to various injury concerns.
