Leicester City v FC Copenhagen: Can the foxes seal the deal in Denmark?

Leicester City could guarantee themselves a place in the Round of 16 in the Champions League tomorrow as they face FC Copenhagen away from home in Denmark.

Our Prediction: FC Copenhagen 0 – 2 Leicester City

Reasoning: Last time out in the Champions League saw Leicester beat Copenhagen 1 – 0 at the King Power Stadium.

The win extended Leicester’s run of victories to 3 out of a possible 3 as the foxes remain at the top of Group G.

FC Copenhagen themselves have had a great start to the competition after being written off by many.

Most expected FC Copenhagen to be the possible ‘6 pointer’ team in the group, however they’ve shown themselves to be a tough act to beat following their opening day draw to group favourites Porto and beating Club Brugge.

FC Copenhagen’s toughest game came away at the King Power Stadium after a testing 90 minutes against the foxes.

Morale in the Leicester camp will be high after coming off of the back of winning their first away point in the league following their 1 – 1 draw to Tottenham this weekend.

Their troubling away form in the league saw them lose all of their games on the road prior to last weekend’s fixture, a polar opposite to their Champions League form where they’ve won their only away game on the opening fixture of the group to Club Brugge 3 – 0.

Leicester coped well against FC Copenhagen at home and the 1 – 0 scoreline is deceptive.

Apart from a ‘backs to the wall’ end to the game, the foxes were unlucky to come away with just the one goal.

With numerous chances being created and club record signing Islam Slimani having a goal wrongly disallowed, the game could have easily ended 2 or 3 nil.

Following the weekend’s results and the fact that they could seal a place in the round of 16 this week, they’ll have extra incentive to dig deep and find that famous Leicester City spirit.
