How Manchester United could line up against Leicester City

Ahead of Sunday's Premier League clash between Leicester City and Manchester United, Sports Mole looks at how the visitors could line up in the East Midlands.

Manchester United head into Sunday's Premier League encounter with Leicester City looking to maintain their charge towards fourth place in the standings.

Caretaker boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has guided United to six wins and a draw from seven top-flight fixtures, and the club now sit just two points adrift of Arsenal and Chelsea.

However, being held by Burnley at Old Trafford has reminded the Norwegian that United still have work to do in order to achieve their goals for the season.

Solskjaer has a couple of selection dilemmas ahead of this weekend's match, and here Sports Mole looks at how United could line up at the King Power Stadium.



MNUXI VS. LEI

Out: Marcos Rojo (knee)
Doubtful: Anthony Martial (unspecified), Paul Pogba (knock)

Anthony Martial was absent from the game against the Clarets with a minor injury, but Solskjaer has suggested that the Frenchman will be available for the meeting with the Foxes.

Paul Pogba also sustained a minor knock earlier this week, but the midfielder is expected to keep his place in the starting lineup.

Juan Mata and Andreas Pereira were each handed a rare start against Burnley, although Ander Herrera and Jesse Lingard are likely to be preferred this weekend.

Romelu Lukaku may drop down to the bench to accommodate Martial's return, where he could join fellow attacker Alexis Sanchez.

Marcos Rojo remains on the sidelines with a knee injury.
