20'
My prediction is still on. Rooney finds Van Persie with a brilliant ball over the top, and Van Persie drags his shot wide. Rooney has, to be fair to him, been pretty good in the last five minutes.

GOAL! Leicester 1-2 Manchester United. Ulloa scores. Vardy beats Rojo on the right, clips the ball into the box and Ulloa scores a powerful header inside the near post, with Rafael not close enough to him.

GOAL! Leicester City 0-2 Manchester United. Di Maria scores. Rooney slides the ball forward for Di Maria, and he chips a wonderful ball over Schmeichel into the net.
15'
Vardy has room on the left for the cross, but Blackett gets a toe to it and takes it away from everyone in the box.
14'
I prefer Paul Konchesky with hair. I suspect Liverpool fans prefer him at Leicester.

GOAL! Leicester City 0-1 Manchester United. Van Persie scores. Falcao spins his marker on the left, strides down the left wing. He curls a cross to the back post where Van Persie is waiting. His header takes a deflection and finds its way past Schmeichel.
12'
Van Persie miscontrols a ball in the centre of the area. Terrible stuff.

Di Maria measures a pass forward for Van Persie's angled run into the box, but his shot is blocked for a corner.
10'
Leicester have been varied in attack. A few long balls but plenty on the ground too.
9'
Leicester have been the better side so far, closing down United quickly and giving them no chance to play. If they score first, they stand a chance. If not, they will tire quickly.
8'
Di Maria has his first run forward, and his cross is deflected out for a throw in. The ball is worked to Rojo, and he Valencia's a cross out of play.
7'
Ulloa fouls Evans as he clears, a moment before Ulloa had the chance on the left of the box to shoot, but he miscontrolled.
6'
Nugent is manmarking Daley Blind in midfield. Is that interesting? You decide.
5'
Ulloa climbs at the back post for Nugent's cross, but United cover and concede a corner. Cambiasso's corner is headed over.
3'
Blackett concedes a foul after a poor pass from Rooney, but Cambiasso curls in a free kick behind everyone with his left foot, and it drifts out of play.
2'
Rafael lifts a cross into the box that Schmeichel can claim easily.

The game gets under way, and Rooney has done nothing so far. Terrible.
13:25
Five minutes left to kick off. It's thrillingly exciting already.
13:20
Tyler Blackett starts in defence for United, keeping Luke Shaw on the bench. Rojo was good at left-back last week, but against QPR it's hard to judge.
13:15
If you would like to get in touch with me on Twitter you can do so on @lxndrnthrtn. I predict a scoreline of Leicester 1-3 Manchester United, with Rooney a disgrace, again.
13:10
Esteban Cambiasso is making his first start for Leicester at home in the Premier League. It'll be interesting to see how much of his old talents he still has. If he's still got most of it, he's going to be excellent for Leicester.
