Leicester City Preview – Can Foxes make home ground count?
Having successfully avoided defeat in last week’s 1st leg in the Czech Republic when they held their Thursday night visitors, Slavia Prague to a 0-0 draw, Leicester City will now be looking to seal their place in the round of 16 in the Europa League at the King Power Stadium.
Leicester City are unbeaten in their last six matches overall in all competitions and indeed, The Foxes have lost just once in the previous 16 matches overall, so Brendan Rodgers’s side will be in confident mood as they prepare for this return leg.
The hosts edged out Sporting Braga into top spot in Group G and although their pedigree is limited at this level, Leicester City have lost just two of their previous nine ties in this competition, both of which were away from home.
Slavia Prague Preview – Can Prague hold their own?
The visitors, Slavia Prague, also have plenty of reason to be in confident mood as they bring a 12-match unbeaten run into this return leg in the east midlands having won nine of these 12 matches but results overall in the Europa League have produced inconsistent returns.
Slavia Prague hav won four of their last nine ties in the Europa League which includes wins over Bayer Leverkusen, Nice (home and away) and Hapoel Be’er Sheva, but it’s worth noting that three of these four victories were achieved on home turf at their Sinobo Stadium.
Having won just four of their last 24 away ties in the Europa League, Slavia Prague may well have their work cut out if they’re to get a result against their Premier League hosts here.
