Leicester City Preview – Can Foxes continue pre-season form?
Leicester City head into this new Premier League season in seemingly fine fettle as The Foxes have won their last four pre-season games with wins against Hull City, Derby County, Preston NE and Sevilla although they’ll be without long-serving goalkeeper, Jasper Schmeichel, who has left for French club, Nice.
The previous Premier League campaign ended with Leicester City going four games without defeat, recording wins against Norwich City, Southampton and Watford along with picking up a point in a 1-1 draw with Chelsea, so Brendan Rodgers’ side look in good shape for a positive start here.
Brentford Preview – Can Bees impress again?
As for Brentford, they come into the King Power Stadium having won their last two preseason games, beating Brighton and Real Betis 1-0 at home, and The Bees will be looking to emulate last season’s creditable 13th place finish in what was their first ever season in the Premier League.
Brentford also finished last season in strong fashion, winning three of their last four games on the road with wins at Chelsea, Watford and Everton but their influential midfielder, Cristian Eriksen, has left for Manchester United and could leave a big hole in terms of creativity for the London club.
