Manchester City vs Leicester City match preview
Will Manchester City’s unstoppable form continue?
On Tuesday night, the Sky Blues took a gigantic step towards the Champions League semi-finals by smashing Bayern Munich 3-0.
Rodri’s rocket, Bernardo Silva’s header and then Erling Braut Håland’s trademark finish securing the demolition of the Bundesliga champions.
With the second leg to come at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday, Man City can almost start planning for a last four rematch with Real Madrid.
Overall, Pep Guardiola’s team have now won nine on the spin in all competitions, scoring an outlandish 34 goals in this period.
In the Premier League, the Citizens remain six points below Arsenal, having played a game less, with the top two set to meet in just 11 days time.
Back in 1938, Manchester City were relegated from the First Division just 12 months after being crowned champions for the first time.
Right now, Leicester City are on the brink of going down a mere seven seasons on from their greatest achievement.
A fortnight ago, they parted company with Brendan Rodgers, following a last-gasp defeat at Crystal Palace.
The Foxes fortunes then didn’t improve at all under caretakers Mike Stowell and Adam Sadler, suffering back-to-back home defeats at the hands of Aston Villa and Bournemouth.
On Monday, it was confirmed that Dean Smith will be in charge for the remained of the season, tasking with keeping Leicester up.
Smith takes over a side without a win in eight, losing seven of those, meaning they are 19th, two points from safety.
Coming up after this, the Foxes face Wolves, Leeds, Everton and Fulham, with those fixtures set to determine their fate.
Here, it would be one of the biggest upsets in Premier League history if Leicester were to leave the Etihad with anything, let alone a victory.
Manchester City team news
Pep Guardiola has very much settled on his team for the rest of the season, utilising only 13 players across their last three matches.
The only change in mid-week saw Bernardo Silva come in for Riyāḍ Maḥrez on the right-wing.
If Guardiola is planning to rotate soon, he’s likely to do so for next weekend’s FA Cup semi-final against Sheffield United, with that crucial clash against Arsenal to come straight after.
In short, an unchanged XI could be deployed here, with Erling Braut Håland looking to add to his haul of 45 goals this season.
The last top-flight player in England to score more than that in a single season, in all competitions, is Clive Allen for Spurs, bagging 49 in 1986/87.
Predicted XI (4-1-4-1): Ederson; Stones, Dias, Laporte, Aké; Rodri, Gündoğan, Silva, De Bruyne, Grealish; Håland.
Leicester City team news
Harvey Barnes, who’s been one of Leicester’s few impressive players this season, hobbled off last weekend so could face weeks on the sideline.
In goal, Daniel Iversen has started the last four matches, so it’ll be interesting to see if Dean Smith reinstates Danny Ward as the number one.
Striker Kelechi Iheanacho could return; he scored 21 times for Manchester City, but has only netted twice in 12 appearances against them.
Predicted XI (5-4-1): Iversen; Castagne, Aartey, Faes, Souttar, Kristiansen; Ndidi, Mendy, Soumaré, Maddison; Ịheanachọ.
