Leicester City vs Fulham prediction, preview, team news and more | Premier League 2020-21

Leicester City have a great opportunity to put the 3-0 defeat against Liverpool behind them as they host Fulham at the King Power Stadium on Monday. The Foxes have appeared a little over-reliant on Jamie Vardy of late and Fulham will be looking to isolate him when they travel to Leicester.

Fulham have shipped in the most number of goals alongside West Bromwich Albion and have conceded 18 goals so far from nine games. However, Leicester City have also been defeated twice at home already by West Ham and Aston Villa.

Scott Parker's team has shown a lot of drive in attack but they haven't been able to translate that into goals. Fulham are currently eighteenth on the table and have not given a good account of themselves after being promoted. But they showed a lot of promise against Everton last week when they lost 2-3 at Craven Cottage.

Leicester City drew against Braga in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday in a six goal thriller. Jamie Vardy scored in the 95th minute of the game to restore parity after Fransergio Barbosa had put Braga ahead in the 90th minute.
