Jamie Redknapp has heaped importance on Manchester United's clash with Leicester City and fears anything less than a win will leave them with "no chance" of reaching the top four.
Arsenal and Spurs continued their impressive form winning their games in hand and overtaking the Reds, prior to the international break. United are staring down the barrel of no Champions League football next season with every game having immense magnitude behind it.
Ralf Rangnick's side sit four points behind the Gunners and a point behind their North London rivals. But the former Premier League midfielder believes that a win against the Foxes is imperative to their hopes of qualifying for the elite European competition.

He told Sky Sports: "They have got to have their eyes on Arsenal. They are four points behind them albeit Arsenal have a game in hand, but they need to get some momentum, and that has been a major problem for Manchester United all season, never really found any form.
"You never feel as though they are capable of getting back to back wins but, there are some fixtures coming up, especially the next three are certainly winnable for them. If they can win them, they get the momentum - yes, they've got Liverpool away and it will be incredibly tough for them - and then Arsenal but they need to breed some confidence to this team Ralf Rangnick has spoken about it so much.
"With this team, consistency has cost them, if they've got any aspirations of getting top four they've got to win this one. For United, taking care of it today, they need three points today if they don't you can write them off getting top four, they'll have no chance after that."
