Looking to end their six-game winless run, Leeds United visit the King Power Stadium to face Leicester City on Saturday.

The hosts, meanwhile, ended their five-game winless run in the Premier League last time out and will look to keep the juggernaut rolling.

Leicester City made it two wins from two last Tuesday as they saw off Burnley 2-0 away from home.

This followed a 3-1 victory over Randers FC in the second leg of the Conference League playoff round clash on February 24.

With 30 points from 24 games, Leicester City are currently 12th in the Premier League standings, level on points with Crystal Palace and Aston Villa.

Meanwhile, in his first game in charge, newly-appointed Leeds United manager Jesse Marsch watched on as his side fell to a humbling 4-0 loss against Tottenham.

They have now lost each of their last four games, while managing just one point from their last 18 available.

This slump in form has seen them drop to 16th place in the league standings, with 23 points from 26 games.
