Leicester v Man Utd could be a cracker! - Merson

Sky Sports football expert Paul Merson has predicted the weekend's Premier League game between Leicester City and Manchester United to be a cracker.


The Red Devils will travel to King Power Stadium on Saturday and Merson believes the contest will end in an entertaining 2-2 draw.

He writes in his prediction column for Sky: "Which United are we watching? The one we saw against Watford, who dig in, or the one we saw against PSV on Wednesday, the team that bore you to death.

"They do have a bit of belly about them, United. Arsenal and Man City didn't play well last week and lost, but United kept going and churned out a result.

"Will they play on the halfway line with Vardy's pace? This is either going to be a cracker or a boring 1-0 Manchester United win. I'll go for the cracker.

"I've watched Leicester a lot this season and they play one way, with pace. If United don't win this, I think it's a step backwards for them."
