Leicester City, Recent FormIn their last match Leicester City enforced their superiority over Blackburn Rovers with a 4-1 away win. They achieved 52% possession in that match and had 11 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Blackburn Rovers' tally of 15 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.
Manager Enzo Maresca will be delighted with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 13 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 4 goals conceded in the same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at The King Power Stadium.
They've had a good run of form recently, with 4 straight wins in a row.
Kasey McAteer will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 4 goals in the last 6 league games for Leicester City.
Preston North End, Recent FormBuilding up confidence within his squad will be a priority for Preston North End supremo Ryan Lowe after sustaining a heavy 4-0 home loss to West Bromwich Albion. They came away from that fixture with a 54% share of the possession and clocked up 5 attempts on goal with 1 on target, in comparison to West Bromwich Albion, who managed 19 attempts on goal, 6 of which were on target.
Lowe will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 8 goals conceded in the same period.
