Match preview
Leicester City take on Leeds United at the King Power Stadium in the English Premier League on Thursday.
Leicester City will enter into this match after they drew 0-0 with Patrick Vieira’s Crystal Palace in the previous match. Compared to Crystal Palace, the Foxes had five shots on target.
Leeds United lost 1-0 to Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal, a first-half goal from star striker Bukayo Saka was enough to earn Arsenal the deal.
Leicester City are currently 19th in the league and have won just one game so far. Manager Brendan Rodgers is unlikely to last long given his current form and the 49-year-old has been in jeopardy since the start of the season, if reports are to be believed.
Leeds however are currently 15th in the table and have lost 3 of the last 5 away matches. Jesse Marsch’s side are four points ahead of Leicester City with one game less, and their recent form has caused concern among the club’s fans.
Both teams are struggling at the moment, but Leicester City appear lacklustre and lack of confidence. Leeds United are hoping to build on that and we expect them to get a close win.
