Mark Lawrenson states his prediction for Leicester City vs Manchester United

Manchester United will be in action against Leicester City in the Premier League on Saturday. The Red Devils are currently sitting in 3rd place in the league table, following their impressive 6 - 2 win over Leeds United, while they will be looking to gain three points from the upcoming clash. And BBC pundit Mark Lawrenson has given his prediction, backing Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side to secure a 2 - 0 victory over the Foxes.

"Both of these sides are much better on the road than they are at home - United have won all six of their away league games this season," pundit said.

"Leicester, meanwhile, have got half as many points at the King Power Stadium as they have on their travels - nine at home, compared to 18 away.

"The Foxes' latest excellent away result came against Tottenham last weekend and, although there is a lot more to them than just one player, they are set up to get the best out of Jamie Vardy and they play to his strengths.

"An in-form Vardy is hard for anyone to stop, but I look at United and I see a team that is just clicking into gear. I am backing them to make it seven away wins out of seven."
