Leicester - Bristol City: Form Analysis
Leicester City have put their loss to Hull City behind them, responding with two comfortable wins after the international break. Their 2-0 win over Norwich City in the last match was gritty, but just what they needed. In a fourth clean sheet of the season, Leicester showed they can do well both defensively and in attack. In their nine matches across all competitions so far, Leicester have returned eight wins. The 1-0 defeat to Hull City remains the only match they’ve failed to score in this season. Seven times in those nine matches, they’ve scored more than a goal and four had over 2.5 goals. The defeat to Hull City ended Leicester’s run of two straight wins at home. However they have no clean sheet in three home matches this season.
Bristol City will take encouragement in the fact that Leicester City are coming from a home loss. The hosts also haven't managed a clean sheet in three straight home matches in the league. However, with just two wins in six matches, Bristol themselves have to improve. They have two losses in that run of six matches. Bristol have also managed just two clean sheets in their nine matches this season. Ahead of this one, they were comfortable 4-1 winners over Plymouth Argyle. This was the second time in three matches that they scored more than a goal. In the last four matches however, they failed to score in two. Facing a Leicester side that has shown great attacking prowess, Bristol will want to do better in attack. None of their losses came away from home though; they remain unbeaten in three, with two wins.

Leicester & Bristol City Squad Analysis
Leicester City defender Connor Coady is back from a foot injury, but he is unlikely to command a starting berth. In the game against Norwich, veteran Jamie Vardy dropped to the bench but we expect his recall to the starting team here. Another player likely to return to the starting team is Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, having been rested against Norwich. Dennis Praet, who has played twice this season is still out alongside new signing Tom Cannon.
At Bristol, skipper Andi Weimann is set to return after a month out with injury. He may, however, only make it to the bench. Rob Atkinson, Tommy Conway and Ayman Benarous are close to full fitness but this game comes too soon for them.
