Team News

Leicester
Bristol City
  • Enzo Marseca could recall James Justin, Wilfred Ndidi, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Jamie Vardy after the quartet were rested in midweek.
  • Dennis Praet and Tom Cannon remain confirmed absentees for the Foxes.
  • Nigel Pearson could opt for an unchanged starting XI on Saturday afternoon after watching his side hammer Plymouth in midweek.
  • The Robins have four confirmed absentees for the trip to the King Power Stadium and could also be without summer signing Ross McCrorie.

Prediction

  • Leicester made it clear that their defeat to Hull was nothing but a blip when they cruised to victory away from home against Norwich on Wednesday night. The Foxes have won six of their opening seven league games upon their return to the second tier and trail league leaders Preston by a single point heading into gameweek eight.
  • Bristol City scored twice inside the opening eight minutes of their clash with reigning League One champions Plymouth in midweek as they romped to a 4-1 home win at Ashton Gate. Nigel Pearson's side are now unbeaten in four Championship fixtures and are steadily climbing the table.
