Leicester City Preview – Can Foxes get off to winning start?
After losing three of their last four matches in the Premier League towards the end of last term, Leicester City will be eyeing off this opening home fixture against west midlands rivals, Wolves, as an opportunity to make a positive start for this new campaign.
Losses to Newcastle United, Chelsea and Tottenham outweighed Leicester’s 2-1 win away from home at Manchester United and indeed also ultimately scuppered The Foxes’ ambitions of a top four finish and a place in this season’s Champions League.
Inconsistency let Leicester City down last season but they did register a 1-0 home win against Wolves in their last meeting at the King Power Stadium and a similar scoreline could unfold here this Saturday.
Wolves Preview – Can Wolves finish top half?
Wolves were unable to match their exploits of the 2019/20 season which saw the visitors achieve a creditable 7th place finish, as they finished in a rather disappointing 13th place at the end of last term with Nuno Espirito Santo departing the club.
Wolves ended the last campaign losing their last three matches of the season with defeats suffered against Tottenham, Everton and Manchester United, while picking up just two away wins from their last 14 games on the road.
It was this poor form on their travels which contributed to Wolves’s bottom half finish and new manager, Bruno Lage, has a job on his hands to make Wolves competitive on the road this season.
