Why isn't Man Utd vs Leicester City on TV or streaming?

On Sunday afternoon, Ruud van Nistelrooy will be leading Manchester United for the last time as they take on Leicester City in a highly anticipated Premier League match. However, fans in the UK will be disappointed to learn that the game will not be broadcasted live.

The day will feature four other Premier League matches, including Nottingham Forest vs Newcastle United and Tottenham vs Ipswich, all taking place at the same time as Manchester United vs Leicester. Later in the afternoon, a London derby between Chelsea and Arsenal will take place at Stamford Bridge.

Unfortunately, only two of these games will be shown live on Sky Sports, leaving supporters of the other four teams frustrated. It's a common occurrence for Manchester United fans to have their team's matches televised almost every weekend, so this will come as a disappointment.

Many fans may be wondering why this match isn't being broadcasted live. Originally scheduled for Saturday at 3pm, the game was moved to Sunday due to Manchester United's Europa League clash with PAOK earlier in the week. However, since it was initially supposed to be a 3pm kick-off, it cannot be shown live on TV, even though it has been rescheduled for a different day and time.

Fans will have to wait until 10.30pm to catch the highlights on Match Of The Day 2 on BBC One. However, the match will be covered live on BBC radio for those who wish to listen in.

In terms of the team line-up, interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy has kept faith in Amad Diallo, who scored both goals in their midweek win against PAOK, alongside Rasmus Hojlund and Marcus Rashford up front. In goal, Andre Onana will be supported by a back four of Noussair Mazraoui, Matthijs De Ligt, Lisandro Martinez, and Diogo Dalot. In midfield, Casemiro, Manuel Ugarte, and Bruno Fernandes will be pulling the strings, while Christian Eriksen, Mason Mount, Antony, Alejandro Garnacho, and Joshua Zirkzee will be available on the bench.

After this match, Ruud van Nistelrooy will hand over the reins to incoming manager Ruben Amorim on Monday. Fans will be hoping for a memorable and successful farewell for the Dutchman, who has made some bold decisions in his short time as interim manager. As always, stay tuned for the latest updates, news, and analysis on Manchester United.
