Leicester City Vs Man City

Manchester City will hope to take another step towards reclaiming the Premier League title when they visit Leicester City at the King Power Stadium this evening (Saturday).

As things stand, the former Premier League champions are third on the table, five points clear of fourth-placed Chelsea, with West Ham United a further two points behind in fifth.

Man City, on the other hand, have recovered from a horrendous start to the campaign that once saw them sit perilously close to the relegation zone before becoming runaway leaders in the Premier League.

Currently perched atop the standings, Pep Guardiola’s side are 14 points clear of neighbours Manchester United and are the odds-on favourites to win the title come May.

The reverse fixture, played at the Etihad back in September, saw the Foxes come from behind to beat Manchester City 5-2, with Jamie Vardy scoring a match-winning hat-trick.

Leicester City XI (3-4-1-2): Schmeichel, Fofana, Evans, Castagne, Amartey, Ndidi, Tielemans, Albrighton, Pérez, Iheanacho, Vardy

Man City XI (4-3-3): Moraes, Walker, Dias, Laporte, Mendy, Hernández, Fernandinho, Mahrez, De Bruyne, Jesus, Agüero
