Man United’s Late Night Adventures at Leicester…
You’ve got your popcorn and pajamas ready because Manchester United fans are about to embark on a night-time adventure, heading to Leicester City with an incredibly odd kick-off time of 7 PM. Why are they challenging bedtime, you ask? Easy-peasy! Thanks to their Europa League exploits midweek against Real Sociedad, Manchester United needs their beauty sleep – or at least, a mandatory 48-hour snooze before strutting onto the pitch again!
The weekend TV schedule has been playing musical chairs, and TNT Sports decided to host a mini football festival last weekend, leaving this weekend surprisingly quiet. While some lucky fans enjoyed Forest’s triumph over the mighty Manchester City or the dramatic Wolves vs. Everton face-off last weekend, this week, the Carabao Cup Final starring Liverpool against Newcastle gets the royal treatment at 4.30 PM. Hence, the celestial 7 PM slot on Sunday was generously bestowed upon Leicester and Manchester United’s spectacle.
The Reds, however, do not mind one bit as they hope to hoard victories like squirrels do nuts. With a hat-trick of conquests over the Foxes already this season, this showdown promises more late-night triumphs for the night owls tuning in! North Londoners, remember: Arsenal vs. Chelsea kicks off at a sensible 1.30 PM.
