Leicester City conclude their matches ahead of the final international break of the year as they travel to Manchester United on Sunday. The match will mark Ruud van Nistelrooy's final game at the helm with it set to conclude the interim period between Erik ten Hag and Ruben Amorim taking over the reign. The Dutchman has made a positive impression in his temporary role, securing two victories from three matches, including one against the Foxes in his first outing , with the only blip being a draw against Chelsea last weekend.
His departure paves the way for Amorim's arrival during the international break. For the last time in 2024, clubs will pause for a fortnight to allow national teams to focus on World Cup qualification or Nations League progress. For United, this break represents a transition from the past to the future.

But for now, their mission is to ascend the Premier League table. As they approached matchday 11, there was a possibility that they could have entered the break languishing as low as 15th.
Leicester, however, have found it challenging to regain momentum in the top flight , managing only a disappointing 1-1 draw with Ipswich in their previous match. United, on the other hand, will enter this game buoyed by a convincing 5-2 victory over Steve Cooper's side in the Carabao Cup just over 10 days ago.
