The unstoppable force meets the immovable object as Leicester City lock horns with Manchester United at the King Power Stadium. The Foxes are yet to draw a blank this term but face a tough task maintaining that record against a Red Devils rearguard that’s conceded one goal since Gameweek 9.

The Foxes have thrived at home and rank top for goals (15) and big chances (22). Furthermore, only Arsenal have amassed more attempts (120 compared to 100) and shots inside the box (89 to 74). Coupled to this, Leicester have proved a tough nut to crack over the last four Gameweeks, claiming two shut-outs while placing second-bottom for shots inside the box conceded (21) and third-bottom for big chances conceded (two).

Man United are unbeaten in their previous trio of road ties, having conceded a solitary goal in the process. In terms of their threat away from home, the Red Devils rank joint-fifth for goals scored (10), despite the fact they chart in the bottom four with regards to attempts (67) and shots inside the box (37). They’ve certainly not been infallible, though, so Claudio Ranieri’s men will draw encouragement from Man United’s road defeats to Swansea City and Arsenal.

      That'll change when the clean sheets come in.

      As a non-owner Vardy scoring doesn't bother me too much but full baps would irk.

  2. Van Klinkert Delarosa
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    How many did RVN scored in that 10 games period?

    Lionel Vardy got like 12 goals.

    1. Give The Todd Some Love
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      13

      1. Van Klinkert Delarosa
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Impressive.

        Both of them.

  3. Eden Hazardous
    • 11 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    I love this team

    Begovic / McCarthy

    Kolarov / Bellerin / Moreno / Rojo / Huth(just not him...)
    Sanchez / Mane / Sterling / Barkley / King
    Aguero / Vardy / Ighalo

    Alli > Barkley done

  4. FPL Puppy
    • 10 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Are people seriously selling Aguero now?? Haven't they learned anything?
    Look at KDB! Look at Vardy! Look at Ighalo! Look at Sanchez tomorrow (maybe)!

    1. Slam
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      What about Vardy and Ighalo?

      1. FPL Puppy
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        People have been selling them to make room for other, more expensive, players. People also sold Vardy when he was doubtful during the international break.

    2. Flynny
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      I'll wait and see extent of injury before selling

      1. FPL Puppy
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        You are a wise person.

    3. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Especially weird if people have taken hits to bring him in. Surely they weren't expecting him to prove the doubters wrong in one week alone?

      1. FPL Puppy
        • 10 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Exactly. No point in selling him, unless he's injured.

  5. Zizoulicious
    • 11 Years

    mahrez to grab the winner

    1. Costa in Wengerland
      • 14 Years

    1. The Machine
      • 13 Years

      1. S.Kuqi
        • 13 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

  8. Jafooli
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Since he got the record, Vardy has really gone of the boil. Time to sell?

    1. Slam
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      25(+7 if BAPS go as planned) with Bellerín, Moreno, Özil{C}, Sanchez, Firmino and Kane.
      I don't think you should be too worried tbh.

      1. Every Dog Has Its Day
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Neither should you I think my team is on 3 BAPS so on 23!

  11. Costa in Wengerland
    • 14 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      1. HVT
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 15 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        1. FALCAO & MOU
          • 11 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          He has to be better than Depay.

      2. Rake
        • 11 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        United would make Mahrez boring. 😛

    1. Nobodinho
      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      because their forwards can't score

  28. Mull
    • 14 Years

    @Jafooli
    Do you remember 20 minutes ago when Vardy was in his prime? What happened?

    1. Van Klinkert Delarosa
      • 12 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      He's having withdrawal.

    2. Jafooli
      • 14 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Toked up at half time....

  29. Van Klinkert Delarosa
    • 12 Years
    10 years, 8 months ago

    Klose surpassed Ronaldo's World Cup record against Brazil.

    Vardy surpassed RVN's EPL record against Man United.

    Beautiful stuff.

    1. Davido989
      • 15 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      except the latter record isn't half as good as the former

      1. Van Klinkert Delarosa
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Agreed, but both have merit on it's own.

      • 11 Years
      10 years, 8 months ago

      Barclays Premier League record* You know, there was football before Sky too

      1. Van Klinkert Delarosa
        • 12 Years
        10 years, 8 months ago

        Always thought it was *English Premier League. 😛

          • 11 Years
          10 years, 8 months ago

          Most consecutive top flight league matches scored in: 12, Jimmy Dunne, for Sheffield United between 24-October-1931 and 1-January-1932, 18 goals in all.
