Leicester vs Manchester United Prediction 16 March 2025

Leicester take on the visitors Manchester United in the round 29 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, March 16th at King Power Stadium (Leicester).

Leicester have forever etched their name in English football history with Ranieri’s legendary title-winning campaign—remarkably, Jamie Vardy remains part of the squad to this day. When the team was relegated in 2023, just a couple of years after a respectable cup run and European campaign under Brendan Rodgers, many believed they would bounce back quickly. Indeed, Enzo Maresca led them to the Championship title, securing an immediate return to the top flight. However, with Maresca now at Chelsea, it remains a mystery whether Leicester could have been competitive in the Premier League under his leadership. Without him, they have been far from it—both under Steve Cooper and Ruud van Nistelrooy. Lately, their only notable moments have come from occasional upsets, as they battle Ipswich to avoid finishing either 18th or second from bottom. Ironically, their last match was against Chelsea, managed by their former boss. Once again, they suffered defeat, and while the 1-0 scoreline was narrow, the outcome was all too familiar. Their defensive fragility remains a major concern, with just one clean sheet in their last ten league matches.

Manchester United’s struggles may be even more disappointing. The Red Devils followed an encouraging 2022/23 campaign with a disastrous showing both in the Champions League and the Premier League. However, their FA Cup triumph, particularly the final victory over Manchester City, convinced the board to give Erik ten Hag another chance. With a fresh wave of expensive signings, he failed to improve results—arguably, they have even worsened. Ruben Amorim, brought in amid great anticipation, has so far proven ineffective as a crisis manager. His only notable success has come in the Europa League, where they bypassed the playoff round with a strong group-stage showing. In the Round of 16, they squandered a lead away to Real Sociedad but responded with a resounding 4-1 victory at Old Trafford. However, under the Portuguese coach, United crashed out of both domestic cup competitions—losing to Fulham on penalties after a 1-1 draw at home. Meanwhile, their Premier League form has been closer to that of relegation candidates than a top-four contender. At least they managed to hold Arsenal to a 1-1 draw in their most recent big test, showing some resilience in defense for the first time in weeks.

United have won five consecutive meetings against Leicester, including victories in both the Premier League and, most recently, in the FA Cup in February. Manchester United simply cannot afford another slip-up, especially against a struggling Leicester side. Expect the Red Devils to secure a much-needed away win.

Prediction for the match: Manchester United to win.
