Manchester United return to Premier League action this Sunday as they look to stay in the title race against Leicester City.
After Manchester City's 3-1 win over Arsenal on Wednesday night, United now sit just five points behind both title rivals in third, with the result handing Erik ten Hag's Premier League chances a boost.

As they always seem to do at home, United controlled the opening stages, with the visitors struggling to maintain United's attacking prowess. The Foxes did themselves no favours though, with an error at the back allowing Wout Weghorst to put
