Swansea - Leicester: Form Analysis
Swansea were 3-1 winners away to Plymouth Argyle right before the international break. The win was their fourth on the bounce, and extended their current unbeaten run to five games. Michael Duff’s men have turned their season around after winning just one of their first eight matches of the season across all competitions. All four victories have come in the league, lifting them to 15 points, three adrift of the top six. Swansea have also won their last two matches at home.
Leicester have hit the ground running in their quest to immediately return to the Premier League. Enzo Maresca’s men have won 10 matches and are the only team so far to have done so. They have amassed an impressive 30 points. The Foxes have dominated on both ends of the pitch and sit in the top two in both goals scored and conceded. Their tally of 23 goals is the second-best at the moment and no other team has conceded less than their six goals. Leicester were 2-0 winners against Stoke at home last time out and have now won three in a row. Saturday’s visitors have also won all five away matches they have played in the league.

Swansea & Leicester Squad Analysis
Swansea are expected to have the same squad that took to the pitch against Plymouth last time out. Jerry Yates, Swansea’s top scorer, was on target in the match and scored his fourth of the season. Jamal Lowe, scorer of three goals thus far, is also another weapon for the hosts here.
This match comes too soon for Kasey McAteer who has been out with a hamstring injury. The 21-year-old has been a revelation for the Foxes and has scored five goals already across all competitions. His absence is a big miss but Leicester have dealt well without him. Kelechi Iheanacho, Jamie Vardy, and Kiernan Drewsbury-Hall have all scored five goals and will be expected to play a part here.
