Hello and welcome to live coverage of Leicester City v Manchester United at the King Power Stadium. A year ago, Brendan Rodgers was the same odds as Erik ten Hag to succeed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as Manchester United manager. Now he’s second favourite behind Steven Gerrard to become the next Premier League manager to receive a P45. We shouldn’t be surprised – Leicester got rid of Claudio Ranieri nine months after the Premier League’s greatest fairytale – but it still doesn’t really compute that Rodgers is fighting for his job.

There are reasons for Leicester’s relative struggles. They have had vile luck with injuries over the last couple of years, and their net spend since Rodgers took over in 2019 is among the lowest in the league. But nobody cares about mitigating circumstances when you are bottom of the table.

Football’s mutability should be Rodgers’ hope. A high-profile win against an improving but still eminently beatable Manchester United would reduce the noise and lift Leicester off the bottom of the table. Leicester’s last two home games against United were rousing victories – 4-2 in the league last year, 3-1 in the FA Cup quarter-final season before. On both occasions, Rodgers outwitted Solskjaer.

Whatever happens in the next few weeks, history will remember Rodgers as one of the best coaches in Leicester’s history. But he’ll hope the story isn’t done just yet.

Sentrale hendelser
Ben Fishers kamprapport er her, så jeg melder meg av. Takk for selskap og e-poster – god natt!
«Som United-fan» sier Liz White, “Jeg har det bra med en trolldom med kjedelig kompetanse for å være ærlig.”
Reaksjon etter kamp
Christian Eriksen
Det har ikke vært vakkert på 90 minutter, men vi har tre seire. Vi ønsker å gjøre det bedre, men det er en god start. Det lignet på Southampton – vi må drepe kampen tidligere, ellers blir det tett på slutten. Kampene fortsetter å komme – torsdag/søndag til etter verdenscupen.
Jadon Sancho
Det var et flott lagmål, jeg er bare glad for at vi fikk de tre poengene. Jeg blir mer komfortabel. Det var godt å bli kjent med laget i pre-season – jeg savnet det i fjor – og vi jobbet med et par ting.
Det var et forglemmelig spill, avgjort med et stilig mål fra Jadon Sancho. Det er altfor tidlig å si at United er tilbake, men Erik ten Hag vil være fornøyd med rygg mot rygg på bortebane. Sist gang det skjedde i ligaen var i mars 2021. Casemiro var god da han kom inn, og det nye midtstopperparet Lisandro Martinez og Raphael Varane imponerte igjen.
Leicester spilte godt nok på midten av banen, men manglet troen på den siste tredjedelen. De trenger en seier så fort som mulig.
Full tid: Leicester 0-1 Man Utd
Peep Peep! Manchester United rykke opp til femteplass etter deres tredje seier på rad.
90+3 min: Stor sjanse for Leicester! En lang ball fremover blir berørt av Daka mot Justin, i rommet til høyre for ham. Han har en touch, men skyter så høyt og bredt fra kanten av området. Det var Leicesters beste sjanse i kampen.
90+2 min Etter et godt trekk fra Leicester, skyter Maddison over fra 20 yards med venstrefoten. Han skaffet plass fint, beveget seg bort fra Casemiro, men så løftet han skuddet over toppen.
90 min Fire minutter ekstra tid.
89 min Uniteds kontroll over kampen har vært mye større siden Casemiro kom inn. Fernandes beveger seg ned til høyre og slår et kryss som treffer den strekkbare Iheanacho og flyr like over stanga.
87 min: Man Utd-bytte Fred for Marcus Rashford.
87 min: Leicester-bytte Patson Daka erstatter Jamie Vardy.
87 min Vardy er dømt for dissens etter å ha blitt straffet, sannsynligvis hardt, for en takling på Malacia.
86 min Dette er en bedre trolldom for United, som har tilbrakt det meste av de siste minuttene på Leicester-halvdelen.
84 min Fernandes sklir et gjennomspill ned innvendig-høyre kanal mot Ronaldo, som hamrer et lavt kryss/skudd som unngår Eriksen på midten. Ronaldo ser skarp ut i kveld.
83 min Dewsbury-Hall har et langt skudd blokkert av Martinez. United pause og Dalot stiller opp et innlegg mot Ronaldo bortenfor lengste stolpe. Han starter inn i et saksespark som går i bakken før han spretter over Ward og noen få meter bred.
82 min Fernandes muskat Thomas og pinger en pasning ut til Rashford på venstre side. Han spiller i Ronaldo, som prøver å gi Eriksen åpent mål med et lavt førstegangsinnlegg. Det er klippet ut supert av en glidende forsvarer, synes jeg Ndidi. United vinner tilbake ballen og Rashford treffer et skudd med venstrebenet utenfor fra rundt 15 meter.
81 min Ingenting skjer. Det har vært et merkelig blodløst spill.
78 min Thomas gjør lurt i å stoppe Dalots lavpasning/kryss i å finne veien til Eriksen i området.
76 min Casemiro har spilt bra, og har gitt litt ro og autoritet til Uniteds midtbane. Han kommer veldig på ballen. I mellomtiden henter Leicester Kelechi Iheanacho for Youri Tielemans; det burde bety en overgang til en 4-4-2.
73 min En farlig gjennombruddsball fra Fernandes mot Dalot er godt kuttet ut av Evans. En statistikk på BT Sport viser at Leicester kun har hatt syv berøringer i United-området hele natten.
71 min Barnes kjører Dalot i området og prøver å krysse inn i seks-yard-boksen. Dalot glir inn for å blokkere, med ballen rikosjetterende av Barnes og ut for et målspark. Varane og Martinez er rett over for å gratulere Dalot, noe som enten er et tegn på en forbedret lagånd eller en litt uforholdsmessig reaksjon på å vinne et mål.
70 min Dette har vært et ekstremt forglemmelig spill.
68 min: United-bytte Cristiano Ronaldo erstatter Jadon Sancho, som scoret et godt mål, men ellers var ganske stille. Marcus Rashford vil flytte til venstre ving.
67 min Maddisons frispark dunker i veggen.
65 min McTominay legger hendene på Maddison på kanten av D, et farlig frispark for å slippe inn. Dette er en sjanse for Leicester.
64 min Barnes snur Dalot pent og skyver ballen inn i Vardy, hvis returpasning kommer til kort. United ber om problemer med sin passive ytelse i andre omgang.
62 min Leicester fortsetter å dominere besittelsen, selv om Casemiro allerede har gjort to eller tre anstendige interceptions.
59 min: United-bytte Casemiro erstatter Anthony Elanga. Det betyr at Eriksen flytter til No10 og Fernandes til høyrekanten.
58 min Vardy reverserer en god returpasning til Maddison, som ikke klarer å ta det med sine skritt på kanten av området. Martinez klarerer.
57 min Casemiro gjør seg klar til å komme videre.
