Being in a good form in recent matches, Manchester United looks forward confidently to face the league leaders, Leicester City on Sunday. The fifth-place Manchester club has faced a lot of difficulties this season and hasn’t been in form steadily.
However, results of recent matches in such a short period prove that United can actually finish the season with a little bit of joy. They have reached the finals of the F.A cup and give the impression of finishing the season in the top-four spot of the Barclays Premier League.
Leicester City, on the other hand, have been the best team in England this season. Their performance and sudden rise to the top standards of football has been cherished all over the world. Halfway into the season, Leicester City was one of those clubs who appeared to be intimidating and difficult to beat. They have been consistently right from the beginning of the season and had their tactical priorities and needs sorted out.
Louis van Gaal’s side cannot match what Leicester has done this season, but can challenge them very well in the reverse fixture of the league or in fact, beat them. In their last meet in the Premier League, they were pretty neck to neck and drew 1-1 at the King Power Stadium.
With the determination and will to finish this season with satisfaction, the Red Devils will put all their efforts to do the the best they can in their remaining for games in the Premier League.
Claudio Ranieri’s side will be without their leading goalscorer, Jamie Vardy which is a huge setback and one of the main reasons if Leicester City fails to win.
Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford, Wayne Rooney and Marouane Fellaini have been in an amazing form in recent matches and can be lethal against the Foxes.
United can in fact, get closer to their current aim by defeating Leicester City, having an upper hand already for their upcoming tie on the weekend.
