Manchester United - Leicester City 0:3
Are the Red Devils able to be also black horses and join the fight for the championship from behind?
They are now three points adrift of Manchester City and five behind leaders Arsenal, and if Marcus Rashford continues his incredible scoring form - then perhaps one can fantasize about a first championship since the Alex Ferguson days.
Leicester City came after two fourths and looked great at the start, but David de Gea produced a huge save in the 20th minute, after which everything changed.
Rashford stung with a burst after a magical header from Bruno Fernandes, completed a second-half brace and saw substitute Jadon Sancho join the celebrations afterwards.
Leicester were unbeaten in their previous two visits to Old Trafford, but this time suffered a defeat that leaves them four points above the red line.

the progress of the game
8th minute: Barnes exchanged passes with Iheanacho and found himself alone in front of De Gea, who managed to stop the kick with his foot and prevented the Red Devils from an early absorption.
10th minute: Another great situation for Leicester, this time it's Iheanacho who is sent into the box, but his kick hits Lindelof and rolls near the crossbar.
20 min: Castan picked up a great ball from the right, Iheanacho was free and hit an accurate shot to the near corner, but somehow De Gea sent a long hand and stopped on the line.
What an amazing save by the Spanish goalkeeper.
25th minute: Goal!
Fernandez sent a great ball with the counterattack to Rashford, the defense froze and the striker did not fail against Ward and kicked in.
Seventh home game in a row that he scores, 0:1 to Manchester United against the course of the game.
* Rashford became the second player to score in seven consecutive home games for Manchester United in the league, the previous being Wayne Rooney with a streak of eight between December 2009 and March 2010.
37th minute: Fernandez delivered another artisan pass from the right, but Dalot is not Rashford.
The defender didn't put his foot in well enough and deflected out when he was alone in front of the goalkeeper.
49th minute: Shaw picked up a free kick, Lisandro ran away from the guard and hit the crossbar powerfully.
56th minute: Goal!
Fred sent Rashford on the left and the fiery striker entered the box and again kicked accurately in front of Ward.
The goal was checked by VAR, but Paz broke the line and the clearance was given.
0:2 to Manchester United.
62nd minute: Goal!
Iheanacho expected the whistle for Lisandro's foul, but the referee didn't react, the home team raced to a breakaway and substitute Sancho scored after a double-pass with Fernandez netting a second assist.
0:3 to Manchester United.
Derby is very important for Tottenham.

Tottenham - West Ham (18:30, Sport1)
Tottenham was humiliated last week at home by Leicester 4:1 and in the middle of the week succumbed to Milan 1:0 in the San Siro in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Champions League, but they look bad and almost managed to forget their great victory over Manchester City about two weeks ago.
The team will again be missing Antonio Conte, who since undergoing surgery in Italy about ten days ago and despite being on the lines in Milan, still needs several days of recovery.
On the other hand, the leaders of West Ham backed and supported manager David Moyes and in the last three rounds the team beat Everton in a bottom battle and ended twice in a draw in difficult games against Chelsea and Newcastle and managed to stay above the red line.
