Bygone Contest

Leicester City Vs Aston Villa: 1-1

AVL Vs LEI Dream11 Goal-Keeper

If any side are going to keep a cleansheet today, it’s going to be Leicester City. And it was this narrative which emoted us towards Kasper Schmeichel from their unit with the goal-keeper pulling off some good saves the last time these two teams met.

AVL Vs LEI Dream11 Defenders

Ricardo Perreira showed what he’s capable of when galloping his way down the park in his foregone encounter to make him our first pick for today’s contest. He came up with a goal and an assist in that encounter, one which massively increases the chances of him pulling off an attacking contribution today as well to see us go in with the fullback.

Ben Chilwell is brought in as well by us from Leicester City owing to the reminiscent attacking impetuous he provides to his side. Elsewhere, we are going in with the two picks from the other side as well despite their harrowing defensive unit.

It’s not only down to the mere price tag of 8 credits which these two players come for but also the fortitude and valour they put on show the last time these two sides met to limit Leicester City to the one goal which sees us go in for Ezri Konsa and Kortney Hause.

AVL Vs LEI Dream11 Midfielders

Although James Madison has seen the goal and assists dry up for him off late, we can’t leave the player out of our side. He’s come up with 6 goals and 4 assists for his side this season and with him being on corner and freekick responsibilities, the player comes bearing with him the identity of a must have player.

Harvey Barnes scored for the club the last time around to see him come into our setup as well along with Youri Tielemans as we opt for an entire trivalent of selections from Leicester City. Elsewhere, it’s just the lone pick from the opposing side with their top scorer with the 7 goals and 5 assists, Jack Grealish being picked up by us.

AVL Vs LEI Dream11 Strikers

Although Jamie Vardy is not fully fit at the moment, the striker is set to feature in this encounter given the massive prize at stake. And with the 17 goals and 4 assists this season, he becomes someone to definitely indulge in by us.

Aston Villa will find representation here as well with us opting for Mbwana Samatta. At a time when the club has been hit hard by injuries, the striker has done well to compensate for the void in attack with his calibre making him a mainstay of the unit’s gameplan.

Captain And Vice-Captain

Barnes will captain us for today while Vardy is our vice-captain.
