Chris Sutton makes Man Utd vs Leicester prediction, backing in-form Marcus Rashford with 'Fantasy team' pick
Chris Sutton has backed in-form Marcus Rashford to continue his goalscoring run when Manchester United host Leicester City in the Premier League on Sunday. Rashford has scored in each of his last four games for United, taking his tally for the season to eight goals in all competitions. The England international is now United's top scorer and is in the running to win the Premier League Golden Boot.Sutton believes that Rashford's form is a major boost for United and has backed him to score against Leicester. "I'm going for a 2-1 win for Manchester United," Sutton told BBC Sport. "They're in good form at the moment and Marcus Rashford is scoring goals for fun. I'm backing him to get on the scoresheet again and I've even made him captain of my Fantasy team this week."
Sutton's prediction in full:
- Manchester United 2-1 Leicester City
- Marcus Rashford to score first
- Jadon Sancho to score second
United will be looking to extend their winning run to four games when they face Leicester. Erik ten Hag's side have won their last three games in all competitions, including a 2-0 victory over Tottenham Hotspur in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg.
Leicester, meanwhile, are winless in their last four games. Brendan Rodgers' side were beaten 2-0 by Arsenal in the Premier League last weekend and also lost to Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg.
