Stoke City vs. Leicester City Match Analysis and Prediction

High flying Leicester City gets a taste of the FA Cup this weekend as they travel to take on Championship side Stoke City. The match schedules for Saturday at Bet365 Stadium with a kickoff at 6 pm.

The Foxes make their trip while sitting third in the Premier League after an impressive start of the season. Their opponents are currently sitting eight on the Championship table.

Leicester holds a four unbeaten match streak and enters this match on the back of a 2-1 win against Newcastle United. The victory came with Liverpool’s shocking loss to Southampton, leaving the Foxes with one point off the top spot.

Brendan Rodgers seems keen to make up for last season’s mishap where the side lost a spot in the Champions League on the final day against Manchester United. However, the side is well on their way for their third Europa League draw this decade.

The side is tied against Slavia Praha in their last 32 tie of the Europa League that comes next month. Brendan Rodgers is also pushing for silverware on three fronts in the second half of the 2020-21 season campaign.

Stoke City have not managed to go all the way in their bid for a FA Cup win. The side had only reached the finals in 2010-11 when they went down 1-0 to Manchester City at Wembley. Potter looks keen to make it hard for Rodgers.
