Manchester United host Leicester at Old Trafford in the Premier League on Saturday with the aim of getting back into the fight for a top-four finish.

Ralf Rangnick's team are sixth in the table and four points behind Arsenal, who currently occupy the final Champions League spot.

But a positive result against Leicester will be no easy feat, as the Foxes beat them 4-2 in October.

Manchester United vs Leicester first goalscorer

Cristiano Ronaldo fired in the opening goal in United's last Premier League clash, a 3-2 win against Tottenham, and is the favourite to break the deadlock against Leicester at 13/5 (3.6).

Edinson Cavani and Marcus Rashford are both offered at 4/1 (5.00).

Manchester United vs Leicester preview

Manchester United have not played since their Champions League exit at the hands of Atletico Madrid in mid-March.

The Red Devils have lacked consistency recently, having won just one of their last five matches in all competitions.

Leicester have been ropey at times, too, but picked up a 2-1 win against Brentford in their last match.

Wilfred Ndidi and Jamie Vardy are unavailable for the visitors and Marc Albrighton is a doubt, but Jonny Evans is fit to return.

Manchester United vs Leicester tips & predictions

Leicester have found the net in eight of their last 10 matches while United have scored nine in their last 10.

Backing both teams to score, then, may prove a smart bet at 7/10 (1.7).
