The Foxes have lost their last six matches in all competitions and look to be heading for a second relegation in three seasons.

If they are to avoid the drop, they need to start picking up points, and they have a chance against a struggling Man United.

Ruben Amorim‘s men are languishing in the bottom half of the table with almost nothing left to play for.

So, this presents a big chance for the Foxes to launch a late survival bid, but the match is starting at an odd time.

Why is Leicester vs Man United at 7:00pm?

This match has been moved due to the Carabao Cup final between Liverpool and Newcastle United.

That match is due to take place on Sunday, March 16 at Wembley, and it will kick-off at 4:30pm.

This fixture was initially scheduled to take place on Saturday, March 15, but it has been moved due to Man United’s European commitments.

The Red Devils are in Europa League action on Thursday against Real Sociedad at Old Trafford.

That tie is level at 1-1 after the first leg, with a place in the quarter-finals at stake.

It was then selected for TV coverage, but because of the Carabao Cup, the normal Sunday slots of 2pm and 4:30pm weren’t available.

Sky Sports will show this game on Main Event and Premier League, with coverage on Main Event starting after the cup final.

Should that game go to extra time and penalties, then the broadcast will likely start midway through the first half.

Meanwhile, over on Premier League, the build-up will start at 6pm.

The Foxes only have one injury.

Abdul Fatawu is still out recovering from an ACL injury.

Meanwhile, Man United’s injury list is increasingly long.

As it stands, Harry Maguire is the only player who has a chance of being involved.

Mason Mount and Kobbie Mainoo are the closest, but they are still struggling.

Leny Yoro has been ruled out with an ankle problem and Patrick Dorgu is suspended.

Luke Shaw, Jonny Evans, Amad Diallo and Altay Bayindir are all out with long-term problems.
