Leicester City Preview
New boss Martí Cifuentes has won two out of three Championship matches overshadowing an embarrassing Carabao Cup penalty shoot-out defeat at League One side Huddersfield Town.
Foxes defender James Justin signed for Leeds United on Monday. The deal is worth £8 million plus £2 million in future possible add-ons.
Even so, Cifuentes has stressed he wants to keep key players including Abdul Fatawu who grabbed the spectacular winner in last Saturday’s 1-0 triumph at Charlton Athletic.
Birmingham City Preview
Freshly promoted Blues are unbeaten in the Championship but licking their wounds following Tuesday night’s humiliating 1-0 Carabao Cup reverse at home to Port Vale of League One.
It was Birmingham’s first competitive defeat since 13th April.
Leicester v Birmingham score prediction: Fast, furious and feisty 3-3.
