Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has made three changes to his side as the Red Devils visit the King Power to face struggling champions Leicester City.

Eric Bailly comes in for the injured Phil Jones, with the English defender out with a bruised foot. The Ivorian will be partnering Chris Smalling in the heart of the Manchester United defence. Meanwhile, Mourinho has installed Marcos Rojo as left-back with Daley Blind making way.

Manchester United captain Wayne Rooney misses out due to illness, while Michael Carrick has been benched in favour of Juan Mata, with Paul Pogba and Ander Herrera in the midfield pivot.

The hosts Leicester City, meanwhile, have a fully fit starting eleven with Claudio Ranieri starting with his favoured 4-4-2 formation. The Foxes boss will be banking on the combination of last season’s heroes Riyad Mahrez and Jamie Vardy with Ahmed Musa providing the width and pace.
