LEI vs NOR Premier League 2021-22 Preview:
Leicester City set to host struggling Norwich City at King Power Stadium in the English Premier League fixture on Saturday afternoon. Former champions will enjoy a rest after this fixture as they have played 8 matches this season despite their struggles with injuries and the Covid-19 outbreak. Norwich City’s troubles continue after another big defeat three days ago.
The Foxes returned to the winning ways after beating Liverpool at home in a 1-0 win. They previously had just 1 win in their last 6 fixtures and their run for the top-4 race was almost over. Leicester City are still 10 points behind 4th placed Arsenal and just 3 points behind 7th placed Manchester United. The Foxes are struggling with tight schedules and most recently from the Covid-19 outbreak. Brendan Rodgers had to field two midfielders Daniel Amartey and Wilfried Ndidi in centre-back roles against Liverpool as every first-team central defender is out with injuries.
Norwich City suffered their fifth straight loss three days ago. They are now without a win in the last seven matches. In the last five fixtures, they have conceded 14 goals score none. They enter this fixture after a 3-0 away loss against Crystal Palace last Tuesday. The Canaries sit at bottom of the league table with just 10 points from the opening 19 league matches. They are just 3 points behind 17th placed Watford but have played two matches more. The relegation battle is already on for them and an immediate return to the Championship is inevitable.
Leicester City beat Norwich City away early this season by 1-2 and have won 3 of their last five meetings against the Canaries. Leicester City will take a breath as their next match is scheduled after 7 days against Watford at home in the FA Cup third-round fixture.
