Manchester United have an opportunity to shelve their early-season crisis when they take on Leicester on the Premier League TV schedule this week.

The Red Devils have steadied the ship with victories over Liverpool and Southampton and can burst into the top six with third consecutive victory here.

Erik ten Hag will be delighted to have finally landed the signature of Antony, and will challenge his existing XI to play for their places on Thursday.

Leicester appear to be in free-fall at the moment and the mega-money departure of Wesley Fofana to Chelsea, combined with the potential cut-price sale of Youri Tielemans, spells doom for the Foxes with no time left to replace them.

Brendan Rodgers will continue to do what he can with his squad, but the rot appears to have set in. When that happens, it usually only ends one way.

RadioTimes.com has rounded up everything you need to know about how to watch Leicester v Man Utd on TV and online.
