With the game being at King Power Stadium, a win is likely again for Leicester; yet we all know home advantage has lost a bit of edge and bite since the banning of crowds. Nevertheless, three points are a necessity in this fixture for Brendan Rodgers‘ men if they are going to qualify for the Champions League, as Foxes of Leicester sees the situation. That is partly because of a difficult trio of outings to end the season with.
