Leicester City Preview – Can Leicester maintain winning streak?
Leicester City may have ended last season’s Premier League campaign in disappointing fashion by recording just two wins from their final nine matches of the season, but Brendan Rodgers’s side have started the new top flight season in explosive fashion.
The Foxes have come out of the blocks quickly with three wins on the trot with wins against West Brom 3-0 away, a 4-2 home win over Burnley and last weekend’s emphatic dismantling of Manchester City 5-2 at the Etihad Stadium which sent a clear message to the rest of the division and has taken Leicester to the top of the Premier League.
Sunday lunchtime’s hosts, Leicester City, will therefore be desperate to avoid a repeat of last season’s slump towards the end of the term by making sure of a top four finish this time around and they’ll be hosting a West Ham outfit whom they beat in convincing fashion 4-1 back in January at the King Power Stadium.
West Ham Preview – Can West Ham build on Wolves win?
Despite gaining early success in the League Cup at the start of this new season with wins against Charlton Athletic and Hull City, West Ham’s key priorities begin with ensuring they maintain their Premier League status first and foremost, and they didn’t get off to the best of starts.
The Hammers were dealt early back-to-back defeats by Newcastle United 2-0 at home on the opening day of the season and a 2-1 loss away from home against London rivals, Arsenal, but the visitors did bounce back in convincing fashion last weekend with a rousing 4-0 home win against Wolves.
It could be said that Wolves had an off-day but West Ham fully deserved their win and were impressive against the west midlands club but they’ll now be facing an in-form east midlands club in the shape of Leicester City at their King Power Stadium and this will be a tough test for David Moyes’s side especially as West Ham have won just one of their last 11 away matches.
