Leicester City aims to sustain their chances of a swift comeback to the English top flight as they prepare to challenge Bristol City on their home turf this Friday.
Bristol City ended up in 14th place last season and currently maintain the same position. They had an opportunity to secure consecutive victories before the international break after defeating Swansea at the start of March. However, when they visited West Brom Albion, they unfortunately faced a loss without scoring any points. Liam Manning’s team is now aiming to bounce back in their Friday’s match.
Meanwhile, Leicester City appeared poised to end the season at the top of the Championship after the initial few matches. However, their performance has waned in recent weeks. Entering the international break, the Foxes only had one victory from five league games, causing them to fall to second place.
Betting Tips Bristol City vs Leicester City: Leicester to win
At present, Bristol City is struggling with defense. They have managed to maintain just two clean sheets in their last thirteen games across all competitions, and have conceded at least two goals in three out of the last five games.
On a good day, Leicester City possess the ability to defeat any competitor. Currently, the Foxes boast the league’s top attack and the last instance of them not scoring was in November of the previous year. Additionally, Leicester maintains an impressive record against Bristol City, with victories in their last three encounters.
