Leicester City hosts Wolverhampton Wanderers in round 1 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, August 14th at King Power Stadium (Leicester)
Leicester City guessed right with their bet on Brendan Rogers. Finally, there is a serious reason to remember Ranieri's champion’s title and compare the current roster with the one that Claudio had. Moreover, the Foxes won two more trophies. In the spring, they won the cup, and a week ago they beat Manchester City at Wembley thanks to the late goal of Iheanacho and won the Super Cup of the country. On the other hand, the ambitious team, which was fighting to the last to reach the Champions League, ended up with a fatal misfire at the finish line and became only 5th. Will the Foxes fall into the same trap or not?

Wolverhampton Wanderers returned from the Championship not so long ago. Then the Premier League got acquainted with such a phenomenon as “Portuhampton.” The bosses of the club worked in tandem with Georges Mendes. And the Portuguese agent found the coach Nuno Espirito Santo and invited a range of players from the Primeira Liga. But we must admit that this vector gave excellent results at first. The Wolves took 7th place in their first season in the Premier League, and then they repeated this success despite their successful performance in European competitions. The decline has begun only in the last championship. Due to a serious injury, the main striker, Jimenez, missed the lion's part of the season, and he could not be fully replaced. And the defense acted without the usual reliability. As a result, the club earned only 45 points and took 13th place. Now a lot is changing. The Wolves got a new Portuguese coach Bruno Lage. He became the champion with Benfica and worked with Sheffield Wednesday and Swansea as an assistant to Carlos Carvaljal.
In this pair, the home side has not lost in eleven head-to-head matches in a row. Another trend in recent years is low production. The fans saw only one goal in the last four games, and that was scored by Vardy from the penalty spot. Wolverhampton certainly did not become stronger, and such an ambitious club as Leicester is obliged to beat the Wolves at home.
Prediction for the match: Leicester to win
