Bristol City, Recent FormThe 2-0 away defeat to West Bromwich Albion will not have sat easily with the Bristol City squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. During that encounter they had 46% possession and had 9 attempts on goal with 5 on target, while their opponents hit 4 of their 12 shots on goal.
Having scored 4 goals and conceded 9 in their last 6 games, they will need to improve at both ends if they are to pick up more points from here on. Of their last 6 games played at home, they've have been unable to score in 3 games and only kept 1 clean sheet.
Their recent results are not something they'll be looking to repeat, having lost 5 of their last 6 games.
Leicester City, Recent FormLeicester City had to make do with a share of the points in their last match, with a 2-2 draw against Hull City. They achieved 49% possession in that match and had 15 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Hull City's tally of 8 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
Manager Enzo Maresca will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 8 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 9 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 21 games in a row.
Having lost 3 of their last 6 matches and recorded only 2 victories, this has to be seen as a poor run of results.
On an individual basis, Jamie Vardy will be looking to cause Bristol City some problems having scored 5 goals in Leicester City's last 6 away games in the league.
The last meeting between these 2 teams in the league resulted in an unsurprising 1-0 win for Leicester City.
Goals should be on the cards for The Foxes in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against Bristol City in their last 6 meetings together. Ahead of this match, Bristol City won't like the look of their goal stats, having failed to secure a goal in their last 3 meetings against The Foxes. When Leicester visit The Robins in the league, goals tend to happen, with 6 from their previous 3 encounters and a scoring average of 2 goals per match.
Leicester has won the last 3 games they've played against Bristol City in the league.
Bristol City manager Liam Manning has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Rob Atkinson (Cruciate ligament), Ayman Benarous (Cruciate ligament) and Matty James (Knock) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Enzo Maresca has a number of injury concerns in his Leicester squad to contend with: Kasey McAteer (Physical discomfort), Ricardo Pereira (Hamstring) and Dennis Praet (Hamstring)
