PREDICTION

Marco Silva has had to deal with the sale of Joao Palhinha to Bayern Munich this summer but it was more attacking imprecision that cost them on the opening day of the season at Old Trafford. Fulham looked spritely but ineffective before Joshua Zirkzee scored late on to pinch all three points for Manchester United. They now face a Leicester City side that have been dealing with a fair few issues over the summer but new boss Steve Cooper, replacing Enzo Maresca, managed to put a halt to Tottenham Hotspur’s dominance last week and 37-year-old Jamie Vardy scored an important equaliser for the Foxes. Fulham remain favourites at Craven Cottage but Leicester will set up to ensure it is a game of fine margins and likely a low-scoring affair.
