Leicester Team News

Leicester has undergone significant changes in their squad following their shocking relegation from the Premier League, as several key players left the club. This includes Maddison, who moved to Tottenham, and Barnes, who transferred to Newcastle.

However, the core of the team remains intact, and after seven matches in the Championship, it’s evident how crucial the experience this team carries from the Premier League is. Leicester currently sits in second place in the table with 18 points, just one point behind the league leaders, Preston. The “Foxes” suffered their only defeat against Hull, at home, despite being the better side throughout the match. In the remaining six games, they secured as many victories, defeating Coventry, Huddersfield, Cardiff, Rotherham, Southampton, and Norwich in the previous round, and there’s no doubt that they enter the match against Bristol with a high level of confidence.

We earn another MASSIVE away win! ✊

Bristol City Team News

Bristol City finished the previous season in the middle of the table, without significant chances of reaching the Premier League playoffs but, more importantly, comfortably away from the relegation zone. It seems that the club and its fans would be content with a similar outcome this year. However, judging by their performance at the start of the season, the visitors have the quality to make a step forward and potentially secure one of the top six positions in the table.

After seven matches played, they are currently in seventh place with 12 points, just one point behind Norwich and Hull, who occupy the positions leading to the playoffs. With only six goals conceded, they boast the third-best defense in the league, which is also a significant achievement.

Bristol has been on an unbeaten run in the past four matches, including victories against Swansea (1:2) and Plymouth (4:1), as well as two draws against Hull (1:1) and West Brom (0:0). They undoubtedly entered the derby against Leicester with high self-confidence and hopes of winning points in this match.
