Leicester - Aston Villa: Form Analysis
After suffering a somewhat unexpected relegation two seasons ago, Leicester City proved too good for the Championship and secured promotion back to the top flight at the first time of asking last term.
While they have yet to win a match in the Premier League since returning, the Foxes have shown they are here to compete, holding Tottenham Hotspur to a 1-1 draw on opening day before conceding a narrow defeat on the road to Fulham last week.
Last season, Leicester took 52 points from 23 home games in the Championship and are unbeaten after the first two matches at the King Power in all competitions this season.
Leicester City have only failed to score in one of their last 18 home games in all competitions!
Aston Villa, on the other hand, had an incredible 2023-24 Premier League season, which saw them finish fourth, securing Champions League football for the first time in the process.
The Villans made an impressive start to the current campaign, beating West Ham United on the road on matchday one, but they were unable to overcome the Gunners last weekend, losing 2-0 at Villa Park.
Unai Emery’s men posted a record of eight wins, four draws and seven losses in 19 away games last season, though their 28-point tally was the fourth-best in the division.

Leicester & Aston Villa Squad Analysis
Leicester City have begun their top-flight season without the services of two players, including goalkeeper Jakub Stolarczyk and attacker Patson Daka, both of whom are ruled out through injury.
Steve Cooper recently brought in Jordan Ayew from Crystal Palace and the Ghanaian scored his first goal for his new employers in midweek, making a case to be given a start in this match.
Matty Cash is now set to be sidelined for at least one month after sustaining an injury against Arsenal last week!
Joining Cash on the treatment table are centre-back Tyrone Mings and Boubacar Kamara, both of whom are facing lengthy absences due to serious knee injuries. Rob Olsen is a doubt owing to a head injury.
New £50m arrival Amadou Onana scored his first goal for the Villans on debut and should keep his spot in the engine room alongside Youri Tielemans and captain John McGinn this weekend.

Our Leicester vs Aston Villa Prediction
While Leicester are showing up as the underdogs here, they have looked fearless over the first two matches of the season and have made a few notable signings, bringing in the likes of Oliver Skipp, Jordan Ayew and Facundo Buonanotte over the summer.
However, Aston Villa have established themselves as one of the best teams in the Premier League under Unai Emery and they will see this match against a newly promoted side as one they should win. We feel there will be plenty of chances at both ends in this one. Therefore, our Leicester City vs Aston Villa prediction: Both teams to score!
Leicester vs Aston Villa - Other Interesting Predictions
Over 2.5
Both teams' first two games of this season have seen at least two goals scored, while four of the last five games between these teams have ended with three or more goals scored.
Ollie Watkins to Score Anytime
Ollie Watkins ended third in the Golden Boot standings with 19 goals last season and will be desperate to open his account for the Villans after missing a sitter last week against Arsenal.
