Manchester United play Leicester at Old Trafford on Tuesday evening. The Reds are back in action just two days after their 3-1 triumph over Aston Villa on Sunday thanks to goals from Bruno Fernandes, Mason Greenwood and Edinson Cavani, the latter continuing his electric form in front of goal with an expertly taken header.
It was announced yesterday that Cavani has signed a contract extension at the club. “From the very first moment that I arrived, I felt the confidence of the manager. As a player, this belief gives you the perfect opportunity to play your best football, Cavani said.

And that miss was soon made to look even more glaring as Justin put Leicester ahead in superb style, collecting the ball from Praet on the left, dancing past two Stoke men as he cut inside, and hitting a delightful shot past Bursik and into the top corner from just outside the box.
Bursik then made another decent stop, keeping out a Barnes strike in the 38th minute.
Stoke s James McClean miscued an effort early in the second half and Wilfred Ndidi struck wide at the other end before Leicester went 2-0 up through Albrighton.
