Leicester City Preview – Can Leicester continue winning run?
Leicester City will bring a four-match winning streak into this upcoming Matchday 3 clash against Portuguese outfit, Sporting Braga, in the Europa League as The Foxes look to pull away from their rivals at the top of Group G on Thursday night.
Back-to-back wins in the group stages of this competition over Zorya 3-0 at home and a 2-1 win on the road at AEK Athens has given manager, Brendan Rodgers, and his side the perfect start to their European campaign while domestic wins against Arsenal and Leeds United in 1-0 and 4-1 triumphs away from home in the Premier League look to be the perfect tonic ahead of this clash.
Leicester City certainly possess the weapons and the game-plan to overcome Braga in this Europa League tie with the likes of Vardy linking up with Tielemans and Albrighton making marauding runs down the flanks and the hosts will be upbeat about their chances here.
Braga Preview – Can Braga catch Leicester unawares?
Thursday night’s visitors, Sporting Braga, extended their winning streak to six matches on the trot in all competitions when they registered a 1-0 home win over Famalicao in the Primeira Liga on the weekend and along with back-to-back wins in Group G, the Portuguese outfit will also be in a positive frame of mind for this Matchday 3 clash at the King Power Stadium.
Victories over AEK Athens 3-0 at home and a 2-1 win away from home at Zorya have also placed Sporting Braga on six points apiece alongside their hosts, Leicester City, and they too will be looking to get a jump on their opponents with a place in the knockout rounds at stake.
The visitors have also won six of their last seven away ties in the Europa League and includes notable wins at Spartak Moscow, Wolves and Besiktas but they haven’t faced Leicester City before, nor the likes of Vardy either.
