Legia Warszawa will be looking to make it two wins from two games in Group C of the Europa League when they welcome Leicester City to the Polish Army Stadium on Thursday.
The visitors were denied an opening-day victory two weeks ago and will be looking to claim all three points.
Legia Warszawa we’re denied a fourth win on the bounce last Saturday as they fell to a narrow 3-2 defeat at the hands of Raków Częstochowa in the Polish top-flight.
This followed a 3-1 victory over Wigry Suwałki when they faced off at the Suwałki City Stadium in Puchar Polski last Wednesday.
Czeslaw Michniewicz’s side will now return to the Europa League where they secured a 1-0 win over Spartak Moscow in their Group C opener.
Meanwhile, Leicester City were denied all three points in the group curtain-raiser when they bottled a two-goal lead to play out a 2-2 draw against Napoli.
The Foxes head into the game off the back of a 2-2 draw against Burnley in round six of the Premier League last Saturday.
Brendan Rodgers’ men have endured an inconsistent run of results so far and will be seeking to find their feet and pick up their first win in Europe.
