Manchester United have set the early pace with two successive 4-0 wins to climb to the top of the table and Jose Mourinho's men hope to cap a positive week by defeating leicester at Old Trafford.
Mourinho was boosted on Thursday by Zlatan Ibrahimovic's decision to sign a one-year contract with United after his impressive first season in England was curtailed by a serious knee injury.
Ibrahimovic won't be back for a few months yet, but in his absence United's British record signing Romelu lukaku has hit the ground running.
The Belgian international has scored three goals in his first two league games and Ibrahimovic believes that, despite losing club captain Wayne Rooney this summer, United are far stronger thanks to the development of Marcus Rashford and the arrival of lukaku.
"Signing lukaku makes us even stronger because he has different qualities from me as a striker and from Rashford as a striker. He is a powerful guy and he brings extra qualities in a game," said Ibrahimovic.
Rooney's move back to his boyhood club Everton has also started well, with the 31-year-old scoring in his first two league matches.
Ahead of Everton's trip to champions Chelsea on Sunday, Rooney this week announced this retirement from England duty to allow him to focus on finishing his career on a high with the Toffees.
