Leicester City vs Manchester United
Nine months is an awfully long time in football. By Easter last year the Premier League betting world was going positively crazy with Leicester fans agonising over whether to cash out, after backing their side to win the league at betting odds of 5001.00!
You could get a lot more than that now!
In fact, the Foxes, once bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, are looking ragged, down to 16th in the table after their defeat to Burnley, two points above the drop zone and without a single goal in 2017.
Jamie Vardy looks bereft of confidence, and the best chance he has of recapturing his scoring form of last season is if he finds a kindly ref to reward his tumbles in the penalty box. Riyad Mahrez is a shadow of the player who lit up the league. A lot is resting on the spark of Marc Albrighton and Kasper Schmeichel’s efforts to emulate the goalkeeping heroics of his famous dad.
On a Leicester fans forum poll yesterday, 85 per cent of fans said boss Claudio Ranieri should go. 85 per cent! The man who brought the league title to Leicester…how fickle football fans can be.
So Manchester United rolling into town is hardly what the Foxes’ boss needs just now. The Red Devils are homing in on a Champions League spot with Jose Mourinho beginning to see the fruits of his early labour.
United are unbeaten in 13 league games with seven wins and six draws.
What would Claudio give for a repeat of last season’s 1-1?
