Leicester City will look to build on their current form in the Premier League when they welcome defending champions Manchester City side to the King Power Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
The Foxes will come into this match looking to extend their winning run to three matches following their 4-0 hammering of Wolves.
City, meanwhile, will be determined to secure their second straight win after they secured a 3-1 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion. On that day, Erling Haaland took his league tally to 17 but has since picked up a knock and is a doubt for this tie.
He needs one goal to match the Norwegian EPL record for a season tally set by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
The win saw Leicester climb out of the relegation zone and into 17th place with 11 points from 12 matches, while Man City’s win saw them remain in second place on the log with 26 points, trailing leaders Arsenal by two points.
When the two clubs squared off in the Premier League last season, Manchester City proved to be the dominant of the two sides after they clinched a 1-0 win away from home before securing a thrilling 6-3 victory in the home fixture.
Brendan Rodgers is expected to remain without the services of Ryan Bertrand and Ricardo Pereira, who continue to recover from their long-term injury layoff, while Pep Guardiola will only have two players unavailable for the encounter as Kyle Walker and Kalvin Phillips remain on the sidelines through injuries.
Jamie Vardy will be relishing the chance to once again get his name on the score sheet after netting his first Premier League goal of the campaign against Wolves this past week.
