In the 6th round of Champions League group stage, Claudio Ranieri has brought to Portugal completely reserve squad, having failed miserably to Porto with the score of 0:5. Manchester City will be the future competitor of the Foxes, which haven’t performed at their best in the Champions League as well, failing to win against far from strongest Celtic. But Guardiola has also made some changes in the game, without taking into account supporters’ feelings, which came to see the beating of the Scottish champion. Eventually they’ve only seen 1:1 draw, and went away disappointed.
After championship last season, Leicester do not perform at their best this season, having in the asset only 13 points after 14 matches played, allowing the Foxes occupy only the 16th place in the EPL tournament table. It should be noted, that 12 out of 13 points were gained by Leicester on the home ground.
Whereas Manchester City compete for the leading positions in the English championship. Currently, Manchester City is on the 4th position with 30 points falling behind leading Chelsea 4 points. Besides, Guardiola has some serious troubles with the squad, as Delph and Company couldn’t perform because of the injuries, as well as Otamendi, Fernandinho and Aguero due to disqualification.
Leicester City performs well at home, wherein Manchester City have noticeable problems with players, which may prevent Guardiola’s team from getting a victory, although one must admit, that the Citizens perform decently in away matches.
Prediction for the game: Leicester to win with +1.5 Asian handicap
