Leicester City vs Crystal Palace

Leicester City make one change to the starting XI selected for the 2-1 defeat at Bournemouth. Daniel Amartey replaces Jonny Evans in the centre of defence.

The good news for the Foxes: they’ve won this particular fixture in each of the last three seasons. Leicester by contrast came a cropper last weekend from a winning position at Bournemouth; have lost five of their last six, shipping five against Brighton and six at Spurs; and have a tricky run before the World Cup break. We don’t want to look at the table, we have to look at the players Leicester have. Daniel Amartey replaces Jonny Evans in the centre of defence. The teams are out. The crowd is so important for us.

John Percy spoke to Leicester's only outfield signing this summer, Wout Faes, ahead of today's fixture: "What they can expect from me is that I will always ...

Patrick Vieira's position at Palace is more secure but he will be keen to add more points to their tally of nine from eight games, which have not reflected the quality of their performances. But there is still much for the Leicester defence to fear from Vieira's fieldings in attack. They know the level of work we do." That's important to be able to do. “When I heard about Leicester, straight away I said to my agent: ‘Make it happen.’ It was a no-brainer. We've played well in a lot of games but not been able to see it through.

Leicester: Ward, Castagne, Amartey, Faes, Justin, Soumare, Maddison, Tielemans, Dewsbury-Hall, Barnes, Daka. Subs: Soyuncu, Vardy, Albrighton, Iheanacho, Perez, ...

He fires at goal to force a save from Guaita, but the flag goes up late for offside. Daka collects an offload from Maddison after neat play between the latter and Dewsbury-Hall. It zips across the six-yard box and takes a deflection off Andersen before heading behind. But, his touch from the return pass sends the ball straight to Guaita.

Leicester City host Crystal Palace on Saturday at the King Power Stadium as both teams aim to kick on after slow starts to the season.

Eze and Olise also provide great creativity from more central roles but Olise drops out of the lineup today as Schlupp slots forward to midfield. Vieira has plenty of attacking options on the bench but the trio of Edouard, Jordan Ayew and Zaha worked well last week and start again. Patson Daka is also chipping in with goals (four from four appearances) and this could be when he finally replaces Jamie Vardy in the starting lineup. Jamie Vardy once again starts on the bench as Patson Daka has the starting spot up top. As for Palace, they are an extremely resolute side under Patrick Vieira and they will now look to kick on after a very tough run of fixtures to start the season as they play Wolves, Everton and Southampton after this trip to Leicester. Leicester have conceded an incredible 24 goals (the most in the Premier League) so Maddison and Co.

- Leicester have won each of their last three Premier League home games against Crystal Palace, more than they had in their first seven against them in the competition beforehand (W2 D1 L4). - Crystal Palace’s Wilfried Zaha has both scored (7) and been directly involved in (9) more Premier League goals against Leicester than he has any other opponent. However, all eight of his Premier League goals have come in London (7 at Selhurst Park, 1 at the Emirates). - Since the start of last season, no side has dropped more points from winning positions in the Premier League than Leicester (35, including 14 this season). It’s also just one fewer than the most defeats by a team scoring first in the whole of last season (Aston Villa and Southampton both 5). The Eagles are looking to win consecutive league games for just the third time under Patrick Vieira (also November 2021 and May 2022). Free Bets expire in 7 days. Enhanced odds paid in Free Bets.

The Foxes have also scored more goals in these three games (7) than in their first such seven at home against the Eagles (6). For me it is important to stay calm with it. - Leicester have lost four Premier League games when scoring first this season, already their joint-most in a single campaign in the competition (also four in 1994-95, 2014-15 and 2019-20).

Boubakary Soumare retains his spot in midfield, keeping out Papy Mendy, who has now returned to fitness and takes a place among the substitutes, with Sammy Braybrooke dropping out. James Justin completes the back four, with Danny Ward still in goal. Brendan Rodgers had other options at centre-half, including Caglar Soyuncu and Jannik Vestergaard, but has opted for Amartey, whose performances earlier in the season were criticised by supporters.

Rodgers has made one change to the side that lost 2-1 to Bournemouth last weekend, with Daniel Amartey coming in to replace the injured Jonny Evans (calf).
