  1. Leicester 0-0 Man Utd

    Youri Tielemans is not happy. He is penalised for a foul on Bruno Fernandes in midfield. Looked like he won the ball, but the ref is not happy with the contact he made on the man.

  2. Leicester 0-0 Man Utd

    Two United corners back to back, both of them headed away by Wilfred Ndidi.

  3. Leicester 0-0 Man Utd

    Manchester United's first attack brings a corner as Bruno Fernandes' cross is blocked behind after he was found in plenty of space by Marcus Rashford.

    So is Edu in the King Power Stadium waiting with a pen for Tielemans to sign the contract at the final whistle??

  6. Leicester 0-0 Man Utd

    Christian Eriksen doing his bit in defence.

    He nips in to win the ball and stop Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall getting a run at goal.

    Leicester have started pretty well.

    Josh: Winning a trophy would be great, but I think a lot of United fans just want to see a team that's playing together and putting the effort in week in and out. Get that working and the trophies will come.

  8. Leicester 0-0 Man Utd

    Leicester mean business. They are charging around and launching themselves into tackles. They could well be outplayed here, but they won't be outrun.

  9. Done deal

    We have another confirmed deal in the Premier League. Midfielder Leander Dendoncker has joined Villa from Wolves.

    More on that here.

    Leicester need to be attacking those wide channels against this United side who play very narrow. Gonna be a cracker.

  11. Leicester 0-0 Man Utd

    Vardy goes shoulder to shoulder with Lisandro Martinez. It's a big clash from two committed players. The ball goes out of play for a United goal-kick.

    That's a contest to watch, though.

    CasemiroGetty Images

    Disappointed as Casemiro is not in the starting line up. I think it's the right decision to let him watch for a bit and get a sense of the game and this league before coming on... kind of call that shows leadership qualities of the new manager. Also shows a loyalty to a winning team and puts onus on them to keep delivering if they want to keep their places.

  13. Leicester 0-0 Man Utd

    One thing that is guaranteed tonight is that Jamie Vardy will go pelting after any pass Manchester United make at the back. Brentford were able to out this Reds back-line under serious pressure and prompt mistakes. The Foxes will want to do the same.

  14. KICK-OFF

    Leicester 0-0 Man Utd

    It's a huge game. More pressure on Leicester than on Man Utd, but a defeat for either will leave them reeling.

    There are transfers bubbling away elsewhere, but the actual football is all here.

  16. 'Only time will tell if Man Utd can challenge'

    They are behind and Erik Ten Hag is signing players for the now, that can get them back on a level footing. He feels he can trust Christian Eriksen and Casemiro. Whether he can get them all to gel to sustain a challenge, only time will tell.

  17. Sutton's prediction

    Leicester v Man Utd (20:00 BST)

    Chris Sutton takes on Tom Dowse from post-punk band Dry Cleaning to pick his winners and losers for the midweek Premier League games.

    Sutton's prediction: 1-2

    How do you call this? Manchester United got over the line against Southampton but Leicester need this. They really, really need this.

    The Foxes do play some play some good football, Manchester United performed well against Southampton but did lack a cutting edge in the final third. They concede goals, they've conceded at least two goals every game so far in the Premier League this season.

    Manchester United got their their first clean sheet away from home with Lisandro Martínez and Raphael Varane looking good in defence. I can see Leicester scoring but I think their leaky defence has been a problem and Kasper Schmeichel has been a big loss in goal with how he commanded that back line.

    Tom's prediction: 1-0

    There is something not quite right about the Leicester squad, especially at the back. I don't think this will be a thriller but I have a feeling Leicester will nick it - their attack is actually still quite good.

  18. 'Minimum return for Man Utd is a top-four finish'

    Nigel Reo-Coker
    Former West Ham midfielder on BBC Radio 5 Live

    A realistic aspiration for Manchester United is a top-four finish - Champions League football. That's what they are going to want minimum in return. They have invested heavily, but I will always question their recruitment because you don't see a plan, end goal and what direction the club is heading in.

  19. Head-to-head record

    Leicester v Man Utd (20:00 BST)

    • Leicester are unbeaten in their past four league games against Manchester United (W2 D2), last having a longer such run against them between 1972 and 1977 (9 games).
    • United lost this exact fixture 4-2 last season – they’ve not lost consecutive away league visits to face Leicester since April 1976.
    • Manchester United have scored in each of their past 26 Premier League games against Leicester – only against Fulham (27 between 1964 and 2009) and Arsenal (30 between 1953 and 1968) have the Red Devils had longer scoring streaks in their league history.
    • United have won 10 of their 17 Premier League games played on a Thursday (59%), the best win rate of all teams to have played more than five games on that day.

    Only at Utd do we buy the world's best CDM after years of McFred to leave him in the bench....for McTominay. Hand over face emoji.
