Leicester Team News

Despite a great fight and good form at the end of last year’s edition of the Premier League, Leicester failed to secure survival, and they became the only club, along with Blackburn Rovers, to be relegated after winning the title in the best European league.

The ambitions of the “Foxes” are clear: to return to the most elite English football, and accordingly, the team has undergone significant changes. Italian Enzo Maresca, last year’s assistant to Pep Guardiola, took over as coach, and everyone at the club hopes he can transfer at least some of the magic of Manchester City to Leicester.

As for the playing staff, Leicester has also made significant changes there. Soyuncu, Tielemans, Maddison, Amartey, and Barnes have left the club, and there is no doubt that their absence will be felt in the Foxes game, with new signings Doyle, Winks, Coady, and Mavididi having a difficult task to make up for the departure of crucial Leicester players from last season.

Leicester played three matches in the preparatory period. They defeated Northampton and Leuven, while their only defeat was recorded in the last duel against Liverpool with a convincing 4:0.

Coventry Team News

Last season, Coventry was on the verge of returning to the Premier League after 22 years. However, they were stopped in the Championship Playoff Final when they lost to Luton Town on penalties.

Coventry will undoubtedly want to make a breakthrough this season and place themselves among the best English teams. Still, there is no doubt that they will have a challenging task, especially if we consider that the top scorer of last season, Viktor Gyokeres, left the team and moved to Sporting Portugal. Coventry has stepped up competition among players, with Binks, Van Ewijk, Sakamoto, Simms, and Collins all arriving at the club. Still, it remains to be seen whether that will be enough to achieve massive success at the end of this season.

In Coventry’s favor are good results in pre-season matches against Forest Green, Shrewsbury, MK Dons, and Exeter, but realistically, Leicester’s quality is far above these teams.
