How to watch Leicester vs Man Utd: TV channel, live stream and kick-off details
@Source: mirror.co.uk
Both Manchester United and Leicester City will be desperate for three points when Ruud van Nistelrooy reunites with his old side.
The Foxes host United hoping to end a nightmarish run of form, which has seen them lose six on the bounce. Van Nistelrooy's men have scored a single goal in their last 540 minutes on the field and sit 19th in the table, six points adrift of safety heading into the weekend.
United boast double their points tally but are nonetheless despondent in 14th place, with the finish line moving into sight for Ruben Amorim. The Red Devils have already bested Leicester three times this term - in the League Cup, the reverse league fixture and most recently in the FA Cup - but have racked up just one win from their last five away fixtures in the Premier League.
Amorim's men inspired some hope after holding Arsenal at home last weekend to mark their third consecutive draw. But United will look to break the duck at the King Power Stadium on Sunday, and Mirror Football has all the info you need to tune in.
What time is Leicester vs Man United?
Sunday's English football schedule has been subject to some re-jigging thanks to the timing of the Carabao Cup final. Liverpool will face Newcastle in the first final of the calendar, which will be sandwiched between a host of games featuring Premier League superpowers.
Arsenal will host Chelsea in a 1.30pm kick-off before the League Cup decider three hours later. Leicester and United will then wrap up the weekend's action in England's top flight after being bumped to the 7pm slot.
The move was also engineered as an attempt to give Amorim's side more rest after Thursday's Europa League clash against Real Sociedad. It's also not the first time this season United have played in the Sunday 7pm slot after facing Fulham in January at an identical time.
How to watch Leicester vs Man United
Van Nistelrooy's redemption chance against United will be one of three major English matchups broadcasted on Sky Sports on Sunday. And television viewers will be able to tune in via either Sky Sports Main Event or Sky Sports Premier League.
Meanwhile, Sky customers will also be able to live stream Sunday's showdown via the Sky Go app.
January signing Patrick Dorgu will serve the last of his three-match suspension at the King Power Stadium after being sent off against Ipswich last month. His absence is the tip of the iceberg, however, with the likes of Harry Maguire, Kobbie Mainoo, Amad Diallo, Lisandro Martinez and Mason Mount all injured.
Leny Yoro and Manuel Ugarte have also suffered recent knocks but stand a better chance of featuring. Meanwhile defender Ayden Heaven impressed as a substitute against Arsenal and could feature here after coming on to replace Yoro, who suffered an injury to his foot.
Leicester have fewer concerns after Abdul Fatawu and Harry Souttar both missed the 1-0 loss at Chelsea last Sunday. Jamie Vardy will be desperate to end Leicester's run of four games without a goal, having scored six times in 18 outings against United in his career to date.
