Manchester United v Leicester team news

Rangnick has already ruled Edinson Cavani out of this clash.

The striker looks set for a period of weeks on the sidelines with an injury he picked up on international duty.

Luke Shaw could be set for a first United outing since February, having played in both England’s games last month.

It remains to be seen what Rangnick does about Harry Maguire, who was booed at Wembley on Tuesday night.

Manchester United v Leicester prediction

United have to win this game against a Leicester side who have not been at their best this season.

They have injuries and one eye on their Europa Conference League clash in midweek so there are no excuses for United here.

Some of the players will not have had long back since international duty but the likes of Bruno Fernandes should be buoyed by their performances there.

Our prediction: United 2-0 Leicester
