Leicester take on the visitors Manchester City in the round 19 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, December 29th at
"Leicester" are remembered for Ranieri's sensational championship and Rodgers' attempts, quite successful for a long time, to consolidate in the top third of the table. But still, it was not possible to grow a new "Tottenham", and we remember the tragic death of the project's owner in a disaster. However, the club did not stay in the Championship for long, where they were relegated in 2023 - Maresca "immediately" returned it to the Premier League ... And left for Chelsea. Steve Cooper, who took his place, did not impress, and left after a series of failures, which the players celebrated with a drunken binge. It seemed that van Nistelrooy would have to restore order for a long time, but he started with a victory over West Ham and a strong-willed comeback to draw from 0-2 in the last minutes of the match with Brighton. However, then there was a cold shower - 0-4 with Newcastle. And then they conceded three goals from Wolverhampton and Liverpool, again only losing.

Manchester City will try to improve the situation over the winter. The Citizens finally got to victory in the Champions League just a year and a half ago. And in the spring they again won the tough race for a new Premier League title. But, obviously, the decision then to mainly sell, even Alvarez, and limit themselves to signing Savio and, in the form of a return, Gundogan, turned out to be wrong. So they will strengthen the squad now - Manchester has not had new top-level players in January for a long time. And they need to strengthen, not everything can be saved anyway - they flew out of the League Cup. But next month there will be the Champions League - having taken 1 point in the last three matches (and how - they were leading 3-0 with Feyenoord, ended with a draw), the favorite has put into question the passage to the playoffs. In the Premier League, the team that was leading by mid-autumn, fell behind Liverpool by ten points. And continues to fall: in the last rounds they lost to unstable Aston Villa, and with Everton they limited themselves to a draw with Holland not scoring a penalty.
After the defeat in the Super Cup, the Citizens won four times in a row in this pair. People traditionally believe in the Citizens. But in recent weeks they have had no better results than their opponents, who are fighting for survival. It is worth considering the option with "both teams to score".
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes.
