MANCHESTER UNITED are leading Leicester RIGHT NOW - but there was huge concern for Ayden Heaven after a serious injury.
Heaven, 18, had to be carried off on a stretcher after a five-minute delay, with Sky Sports cameras deciding not to show a replay of the incident.
Ex-Arsenal star Heaven had been arguably United's best player in the match before he went down clutching his leg and looking in immediate pain.
Leicester, under United great Ruud van Nistelrooy, have struggled in their quest for survival - losing their last six - scoring in only one.
Rasmus Hojlund scored his first goal of 2025 before Alejandro Garnacho doubled the lead against the poor Foxes.
Kick-off: 7pm GMT
TV channel: Sky Sports
Leicester City XI: Hermansen, Faes, Coady, Thomas, Justin, Ndidi, Soumare, Kristiansen, Daka, El Khannouss, Vardy.

Leicester 0-2 Man Utd
74. This has been such a disappointing season for The Foxes' fans.
You can take a relegation but you want to it the right way and go down fighting. making your opponents scrap hard for every point they take from you.
This has been far from the case for Leicester, it has been a bit like Burnley and Sheff Utd last season who just looked out of their depth at this level.

72. It is very true that there are usually always positives to be found in every situation.
Despite struggling with injuries at the moment, it is a very good time to be a young player at Man Utd.
Amorim's hand is being forced to blood the inexperienced academy players which is giving them a real opportunity to impress.

70. Amorim opts to make some changes immediately after the goal.
Ugarte, Eriksen and the goalscorer Garnacho are brought off.
They are replaced by Casemiro, Zirkzee and Amass.

68. If you write it, it will come.
After the previous post Garnacho seems to address that very problem.
No chance of this one being chalked off as the Argentine winger gets back to his scoring ways.
His last goal was in the reverse fixture at Old Trafford.

66. Even if they do end up winning this game, Ruben Amorim will not laud his side with positives when they analyse the performance.
Dominating the ball but failing to put the game to bed has been a reoccurring theme that has cost them wins this season.
It is almost as if they go into auto-pilot when leading with no drive to turn the screw and see of their opponents.

64. Having replaced their manager to change their fortunes earlier in the season, it has not panned out how the owners wanted.
That will of course raise the unavoidable conversation amongst fans wondering whether Steve Cooper could have done better.
It is the game of Russian roulette that you play changing your leader during the season, it is not looking like ending in a positive way for Ruud van Nistelrooy.

62. Soumare plays a shocking pass, gifting it to Eriksen in the final third.
To his credit, he bust a gut to get back and make the vital block to sends the Dane's effort wide of the goal.
From the resulting corner, Garnacho shoots from the edge of the box but Hermansen gets down well to save in the corner.

60. Well, if you ever needed to feel like the planets are aligning for you to get a massive win, that should be it.
It looked like the game had been put to bed, with the Man Utd winger even sitting on the advertising boards celebrating.
Such a late raising of the flag shocked everyone but the review agreed and has really given The Foxes a lifeline in this game.
Now it is all about capitalising on the gift.

56. Eriksen is full of confidence this evening.
He tries another shot from outside the box, this time going low towards the bottom corner of the goal.
Sadly for the Red Devils, he dooes not catch it well and Hermansen saves.

54. Vardy feeds out to Justin, who heads to the byline.
He looks to cross it back into the box but the presence of Dalot sees him knock it out for a goal kick.
That seems like nothing but is just another factor why The Foxes are in the predicament they are.
Fine margins separate teams at this level.

52. It will be interesting to see how the Red Devils shape up now.
Collyer is by no means a central defender so somebody is going to have to fill in and play out of position.
Vardy, with all his experience, should target whoever it is and look to play off their shoulder.

50. Man Utd are being forced into an early change here.
Collyer looks set to come oon with Heaven still receiving treatment behind the goal.
This could provide a chance to The Foxes as the visitors have to reshuffle the pack due to the player not being able to continue.

46. These are the moments where players are asked to show what they have got to offer their team.
Despite being behind, you know that if The Foxes get the next goal doubt will immediately cloud the minds of these Man Utd players.
They are very much in this game but need to show just how much they want to play at the highest level.

HT: Leicester 0-1 Man Utd
It is creeping towards ten hours since The Foxes scored a goal in front of their own fans at the King Power.
History will tell you that newly promoted sides who stay up in their first season in the top-flight tend to turn their home ground into a fortress that nobody relishes visiting.
Leicester City are so far away from that, it seems nearly impossible to see where the points would come from to ensure their survival.
Van Nistelrooy should be telling their players that they have one crack at this season and to go out their and show the hunger of a team who are not willing to end this journey at the first hurdle.

View from SunSport's Graeme Bryce at the King Power
United's mini revival continues and Ruben Amorim's men look well on course to stretch their unbeaten run to seven games.
Meanwhile the poor Foxes are 45 minutes away from setting an unwanted record as the first team in top flight history to lose SEVEN successive home games without scoring.
Rasmus Hojlund will be relieved to have broken his 21-game duck after 22 hours and 18 minutes.
In truth he should be looking to leave the King Power with the matchball as there are more goals to be taken from this feeble Foxes defence.

IIt has been a half a good intentions but little output from both sides.
However, under-fire striker Rasmus Hojlund finally got back to scoring way with a good finish after Bruno Fernandes set him clear.
With a slender lead this game is far from over but the hosts are not troubling the Man Utd goal enough to turn this game on its head currently.

Ruben Amorim have got their noses in front and look good value for the lead.
Leicester are struggling to create chances, a reoccurring issue for van Nistelrooy's team.

45. While that was some good work from the Man Utd youngster to protect his goal, Daka will know that was a huge chance wasted.
That is something Leicester can ill-afford given their situation.
You do wonder if that had dropped to Vardy, whether Onana would be fishing that ball out of the back of the net.
We are going to have one added minute.

43. The visitors goal seems to have silenced The Foxes' fans.
Meanwhile in the away end the Man Utd fans continue to sing.
Leicester almost offer the perfect response as they look to work Onana but Heaven does well to make an important block.
