Premier League Vault | Man Utd 2-2 Leicester

Before Saturday's clash, we take a look back at a classic Premier League match from 1998 between Manchester United and Leicester, which ended 2-2.

Claudio Ranieri's men will travel to Old Trafford this Saturday as Premier League champions and many will be expecting them to get a result, but rewind the clock back to 1998 and times were very different.

Old Trafford was a fortress under Sir Alex Ferguson's reign and Leicester were no more than a plucky Premier League underdog under Martin O'Neill.

They travelled north to take on United in the first game of the 1998/99 season and raced into a surprise 2-0 lead courtesy of goals from Emile Heskey and Sky Sports pundit Tony Cottee.

However, Teddy Sheringham and a bleached blonde David Beckham salvaged a point for Ferguson's men, who went onto win the treble that season.
