The FA Cup 4th Round kicks off at Old Trafford, with former Red Devil Ruud van Nistlerooy returning to Old Trafford to take on his old side on Friday night.
PP ambassador Joe Cole joined us during the week to give us his thoughts on this will go go down.
He’s got a player pick in here, too, which is covered by Paddy’s Super Sub offer, meaning if a player is substituted, the pick carries over to his replacement. Let’s get his Man United v Leicester betting tips.

You’ve got to try take the emotion out of it when making a bet on this one and not just back the name of Manchester United. I watched them in Europe last week, out in Bucharest, and at times they looked brilliant – but then at other times, like a League 2 side.
They really do flip between form, but the only reason I would be backing them in this game is the fact they are playing Leicester, who are very limited and cannot score goals.
It was another heavy defeat for them at the weekend, I know Ruud got a good result at Spurs, but I still think they are getting dragged right back into relegation danger. They’ve had that bounce from Ruud coming in, but I still think they could go down, so that’s why I’m backing United for quite a comfortable win here at -1.
I’m also going for Bruno Fernandes to score or assist in the game. Everything runs through him, he’s the fulcrum of this United team, I dread to think where they would be right now without him.
I don’t fancy Leicester to score either, so I’m going for a United clean sheet, as an extra. I love Ruud, but when he took up this job, I thought that was a bit naïve, looking at their squad, I don’t think they’ve got enough to stay up.
