Overview
Leicester enter the fixture after a 3-0 victory over Newcastle United and the clash saw the Foxes star Jamie Vardy score his 10th consecutive league goal at St James's Park. He will be hoping to create history by scoring his 11th goal against United in front of his home fans.
Claudio Ranieri has seen his side score goals regularly this season and Vardy and Riyad Mahrez have been exceptions for them this term. The former Chelsea boss will be hoping his side can seal a victory over the Red Devils on Saturday.
United come into the game after a disappointing goalless draw against PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League clash at Old Trafford. The result has left them with a must win tie when they face Wolfsburg in Germany. Louis van Gaal's side conceded against Watford, courtesy of a penalty in the final quarter of the match. They kept a clean sheet against the Dutch club and United will be looking for a clean sheet when they take on Leicester.
What managers say
Claudio Ranieri: "I think his [Martial] impact for us was amazing. He scored four goals if I remember. I have watched him grow a lot since two or three years ago when I bought him from Lyon. Now he is young, but he is a man."
Louis van Gaal: "I cannot say that also because these kind of injuries you cannot predict. I don't think it is weeks, but I think within two weeks one of the two can come back. But I don't know, you can never predict that, because injuries are unpredictable."
