Ruud van Nistelrooy’s final Premier League game in interim charge of Red Devils
Ruud van Nistelrooy takes charge of Manchester United for the final time this weekend when they host Leicester in the Premier League.
The former United striker was placed in interim charge of the Red Devils following the sacking of Erik ten Hag and saw his side put 5-2 past the Foxes in the Carabao Cup last month.
United then drew 1-1 with Chelsea last weekend before claiming a much-needed 2-0 victory against PAOK in the Europa League on Thursday, with Sunday’s clash at Old Trafford the last before the arrival of Ruben Amorim later this month.
Here’s everything you need to know about the game.
Manchester United vs Leicester is scheduled for a 2pm GMT on Sunday 10 November 2024.
Old Trafford in Manchester will host.
TV channel and live stream: The game will not be broadcast in the UK.
Free highlights: Match of the Day 2, however, will show highlights when it airs at 10.30pm GMT on BBC One.

Leny Yoro is stepping up his return from a foot injury, though isn’t expected back here. Luke Shaw, Tyrell Malacia and Harry Maguire are injured, while Van Nistelrooy will provide an update on Kobbie Mainoo at Friday’s pre-match press conference.
The Foxes are without Patson Daka, along with Jakub Stolarczyk. Hamza Choudhury is a doubt.
While United are hardly covering themselves in glory right now, slipping at home here would be a major shock.
