There is a significant Championship match this weekend. Well, the game actually takes place on Friday night but you catch my drift! West Bromwich Albion (currently seventh) entertain Leicester City (fourth) at The Hawthorns. The stadium situated in the Midlands, just like our very own King Power Stadium, has been very kind to the Foxes over the years. In fact, the visitors haven't been beaten at the ground in 15 years. 2010 was the last occasion City were defeated by West Brom away. Good Times!

However, we are not really looking at statistics and historical facts for this one. No. This piece is more current and concened with which LCFC personnel will likely be deployed on the evening. Not to mention how, where and when supporters of either club and neutrals can watch the contest. So, here are the apparent Leicester injuries and our predicted lineup, the kick-off, and TV plus streaming information.

West Brom Albion versus Leicester City

The last time Midlands rivals WBA and Leicester played one another in April 2024, Enzo Maresca's outfit won 2-1. Carlos Corberán was in charge of the Baggies back then too.

In fact, City have been victorious in the previous five meetings between the pair. Kick-off time is 8pm in the United Kingdom.

Television channels and streaming sites

Sky Sports Football is the venue for people watching from home, down the pub or generally not at the Hawthorns.

Injuries

LCFC boast no fresh injury worries, thankfully. Long-term absentee Harry Souttar is coming back soon. Though Aaron Ramsey is suspended.

Predicted Foxes XI

Jeremy Monga may come in for Stephy Mavididi. I'd even field the former as a No.10, drop Boubakary Soumare and play Jordan James as a No.8. Though, taking into account what Marti Cifuentes has said and done recently, below is the side Foxes of Leicester believe he'll select:

Stolarczyk; Thomas, Faes, Vestergaard, Ricardo; Soumare, Winks; James; Mavididi, Fatawu; Carranza.
