Leicester City will host Spartak Moscow in the UEFA Europa League on 4th November, following a tough tie. Here is what to expect from another big match.

Brendan Rodgers will hope for better defending and more of the same attacking intent which saw the Foxes narrowly triumph over Russian side Spartak Moscow in their previous UEL fixture. The away side won 3-4 thanks to a late flurry of goals from Patson Daka.

The home tie shall be no different in many ways. Leicester will still utilise Daka and the Moscow-based side will still offer a physically tough counter-attacking style. This will be a test of whether the gaffer has learnt anything from the defeat to Arsenal.

Out on European tour, the Zambian international goal-machine and fan favourite will once more be the focal point of a progressive and possessively dominant King Power team. Rodgers will of course opt to keep Jamie Vardy fresh for the league and use Daka to progress in competitions.

Here are a couple of stats to underline just how critical the young forward will be if the Blue and Whites are to be victorious. Please click the below link to go to the next page.
