Few would have expected Leicester v Man Utd to be a top-of-the-table clash in late November, but this hasn’t been a normal season.
The Foxes are top of the tree less than a month before Christmas, sitting one place and one point ahead of the Red Devils.
And they have a chance to extend their lead with victory over a weakened Manchester United side.
Paddy McNair starts at centre-back with Marcos Rojo the latest to join a growing injury list, although Wayne Rooney and Anthony Martial are both involved.

Three academy players are on the United bench too: Cameron Borthwick-Jackson, Andreas Pereira and Marcus Rashford.
Leicester, meanwhile, can call upon Premier League top scorer Jamie Vardy as he looks to find the net in an 11th successive game.
