Aston Villa are currently in 17th place in the Premier League standings and have not been at their best this season. The away side held Manchester City to a 1-1 draw this week and will look to take it up a notch in this fixture.
Leicester City, on the other hand, are rooted to the bottom of the league table at the moment and have endured a shocking start to their campaign. The Foxes suffered a 5-2 defeat at the hands of Brighton & Hove Albion in their previous game and will need to bounce back this weekend.
