Manchester United begin life after Erik ten Hag by welcoming Leicester City to Old Trafford for the Carabao Cup round of 16. Behind the scenes, the club are working on a deal to bring Sporting CP manager Ruben Amorim to the club as a full-time replacement for Ten Hag who was sacked on Monday.
Tonight’s match sees interim boss Ruud van Nistelrooy take charge of the hosts as they seek to bounce back from a 2-1 Premier League defeat to West Ham and progress further in the league cup. United’s form has been indifferent all season but they managed to overcome League One’s Barnsley 7-0 in the previous round of this competition.
