LEI Vs MCI Dream11 Team Probable Playing 11 And Match Report: Embroiled in unsavoury issues, Manchester City strive to imbibe semblance in their season.
Fighting contentions issues at the moment, for Manchester City, the only solace cam stem from effervescent displays on the pitch. With the club currently entrapped in a two year Champions League ban, one which they are striving to overturn in the time to come, electric displays on the field can only help paper over the prevelant angst filled latest development.
They did manage to give their supporters something to rejoice in the last time around with a comprehensive 2-0 routing of West Ham in the Premier League, a dominant display they’ll be looking to emulate come today’s tie. However, when they come across Leicester City on the day, things won’t be half as straightforward for them with their wayward defence put to the test by a side which loves to maraud its way towards the opponent’s goal.
If things won’t be easy for Manchester City, they are only going to get trickier for Leicester City. Gone is the form which earned them their current third spot in the league with the side registering the solitary win in its foregone encounters. However, with City known to crumble defensively and this being the side’s third match in the space of a week, everything is not lost for Leicester City when they step out today.
LEI Vs MCI Probable Winner
Leicester City will perturb Manchester City on the day but they won’t have enough in their pool to pull off a win on the day. Manchester City’s attacking brunt is too much to deal with and with Leicester City having collapsed against sides which rattle them defensively, City should be able to walk away from this one with the three points.

The seven goals and seven assists for Riyad Mahrez see him come in as well from City along with Bernardo Silva who has the five goals and five assists this season. Elsewhere, with three goals in hs last four encounters, Harvey Barnes is in resplendent touch to make our first pick from Leicester City for the clash along with Dennis Praet.
