Pogba injury concern

But Solskjaer was confident that the French midfielder, who has shone since the former striker took over as boss, will be okay for today.
Speaking about his midfield general’s fitness, Solskjaer said: “I thought I was going to have to take Paul off [Pogba] just when Burnley scored the second goal because he got a knock.
“He did well to run it off and I think he’s okay.
“I think he’ll be okay and Anthony [Martial] hopefully will be okay for the weekend.”
Worrying times for Claude Puel
12.40: For Claude Puel’s Foxes, they are looking to avoid a third straight Premier League home defeat.
Leicester haven’t been in the best of form, losing three of their last four in all competitions.
The omens aren’t good for the hosts having won just one of their 12 home Premier League match against Manchester United.
They may be able to call on the services of Belgian midfielder Youri Tielemans who joined from Monaco on transfer deadline day.
Man Utd seek to extend unbeaten run
12.30: Manchester United travel to Leicester today looking to bounce back from a home draw with Burnley.
The Red Devils were somewhat fortunate to come away with a point from their clash with the Clarets having been 2-0 down heading into the 87th minute.

The Norwegian had won his first eight matches since taking temporary charge and will be looking to get back on the winning trail against Leicester.
