Leicester City plays in the Premier League tonight (Tuesday) in an attempt to secure a spot in the Champions League.
The city faces Manchester United at Old Trafford at 6 p.m., knowing that a victory would put them eight points clear of fifth position ahead of Thursday's game between Manchester United and Liverpool.
DON"T MISS:
With such a short turnaround for the Red Devils, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is forced to name a much-changed squad in order to secure his players.
However, the Manchester United manager would be unable to call on four players.
Harry Maguire, a former City defender, is set to skip the game with an ankle injury after leaving the field in the second half versus Aston Villa.
“This could be a few weeks, it could be a matter of days,” Solskjaer said of the injury on Sunday.
Hopefully, he won't be too badly hurt, but I'm not a doctor, and we'll have to examine him and scan him tomorrow.
DON"T MISS:
It was his ankle, lower leg; I believe the boy jumped on top of him, causing him to wrench his ankle and take a knock.”
United are still likely to be missing forward Anthony Martial, who is still recovering from a knee injury, and Daniel James, who will not be able to play.
They will be replaced on the bench by defender Phil Jones, who has missed the whole season due to a knee injury and shows no signs of returning ever.
City enters the game with big questions over former Manchester United defender Jonny Evans' health, although long-term absentees James Justin and Harvey Barnes, as well as team captain Wes Morgan, will all sit out.
