Man Utd vs Leicester - Kick-off time, TV channel and live stream details
Manchester United have the chance to close the gap on the Premier League title challengers when they host Leicester on Sunday afternoon.
The Red Devils sat five points behind Arsenal and Manchester City before Saturday's games were played. While they are the stark outsiders in the title race, with few giving them a hope of winning the league, United can keep in touch with the Gunners and City.
To do that though they will have to overcome a Leicester side who are enjoying a four-game unbeaten run in all competitions. They claimed a statement win over top four-chasing Tottenham last week and will be a tough challenge for Erik ten Hag's men.
When is Man Utd vs Leicester City?
Manchester United's clash with Leicester will kick off at 2pm on Sunday, 19 February at Old Trafford.
The last meeting between the two sides came in September, when Jadon Sancho's early goal was enough to hand United all three points. It was a third successive win for the Red Devils, with Leicester left rock bottom of the table.
