Bottom-ranked Leicester City will be eager to turn things around when they welcome Manchester United to the King Power on Thursday.

Leicester City will be hoping for a favorable outcome when they take on Manchester United in a very important clash on Thursday night. Although it is still early days yet, pressure is mounting on manager Brendan Rodgers as the Foxes are still searching for their first victory in the top flight.

Normally considered among the top 10 in the English top-flight, the King Power outfit is currently sitting bottom of the standings. They have only earned one point so far this campaign and have lost three straight league matches, suffering defeats to Arsenal, Southampton, and Chelsea.

Over the weekend, Rodgers' men had a great opportunity to stun the Blues who were handicapped by the sending off of Conor Gallagher. However they failed to threaten the defense of the Londoners and could only fashion a consolation goal, with Raheem Sterling's second half brace's guiding Thomas Tuchel's side to victory.

With Leicester's poor start in perspective, Manchester United are the heavy favourites to maintain their winning streak ahead of their fifth game of the new season. The Red Devils will be confident that they can earn their third straight Premier League victory, winning their most recent games against Liverpool and Southampton after successive defeats in their first two games.

A new dawn is well upon the Old Trafford club and, for the first time in a while, the signs look promising that they could well dominate games under the right circumstances. In Erik ten Hag, the 20-time league champions are gradually carving an identity for themselves and are playing more like a unit now. Needless to say, they will require extra motivation heading into Thursday's affair as they have failed to clinch a win against Leicester in their last five outings.
