Leicester City play Charlton Athletic in the early fixture in this weekend's Sky Bet Championship schedule. Therefore we have devised a predicted Foxes lineup for our readership. That's thanks to LCFC boss Marti Cifuentes offering injury updates during his Thursday afternoon press conference at Seagrave Training ground. I'll also look up the kick-off time for you. Not to mention naming television screening times and channels in order to watch the game. Then there is the possibility of also streaming the potentially, eventually, near to the top of the table clash. Let's waste no time and get on with the content. There's a bonus segment on statistics and history of meetings between the two second tier outfits too:
Charlton Athletic vs Leicester City injuries and kick-off time
OK, as I stated earlier this contest is one of three lunchtime matches. The event starts at 12:30pm British Summer Time, at The Valley.
Cifuentes' information on four Foxes before playing the Addicks was encouraging. First of all, the problem sustained by full back James Justin is to be assessed. So he's a doubt. The England international is currently linked with moves to Everton and Leeds United.
It sounds as though club captain Richard Pereira is back in content. However, Victor Kristiansen won't feature for a few weeks, if I have gauged the manager's comments correctly. The left back is connected with a transfer to Nottingham Forest at present. Bobby De Cordova-Reid is also unavailable.
Stats
This is the 30th meeting between the East Midlands side and the South London team. Luckily for those of us in the Blue Army, City are given a 43 per cent win chance. Meanwhile Charlton are on 28%; leaving an apparent 29% draw prospect, according to Google's probability rater.
TV & streaming
The match is available on Sky Sports Football as well as Sky Sports Main Event HD in the United Kingdom.
Predicted XI
Stolarczyk; Thomas, Okoli, Vestegaard, Ricardo; Winks, Soumare; Mavididi, El Khannouss, Fatawu; Ayew
"He (Ricardo) is doing very well actually because he’s a very important player for us and Club captain. He was very eager to come with the team, so he travelled with us to Preston to support the guys."Cifuentes
