Leicester take on the visitors Sevilla in the second leg of Champions League’s round 16. The game will be played on Tuesday, March 14th at King Power Stadium (Leicester). The first leg ended with 2-1 win of Spanish side.
Things have changed greatly for the hosts of the match since the first leg in Sevilla. Claudio Ranieri, who won the title last season, got fired from Leicester and the Italian was replaced by his assistant, Craig Shakespeare. The Foxes have won two matches under new manager, beating Liverpool and Hull City with the same score, 3-1. These six points allowed the team to improve things in the league and now they appear to be competitive side, like their uses to last season. Clearly, things weren’t great between Ranieri and his players, but his departure had effect the owners expected. Leicester have solid home record taking 10 wins in 19 matches at own turf this season with five draws and four defeats in other nine matches.

Sevilla re currently on eight-match undefeated streak as the last time they failed to gain points was back in the end of January. The team took five wins and drew three times since then. As to performance on the road, the team took nine wins in 20 matches, drew six games and recorded five defeats.
Close defeat in away leg leaves pretty good chance to Leicester for success in the matchup and improved Foxes are definitely will offer the Spaniards a battle at King Power. Considering the fact that both teams are in good form and the moment and results of the first leg haven’t decided the winner, we should expect quite eventful clash with goals on both ends of the pitch.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score.
