Skybet Championship: Leicester-Bournemouth Statistical Preview

LB stats 1 LB stats 2

Team News

Leicester

  • Richie De Leat is set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines, so Marcin Wasilewski could replace him.
  • Sean St Ledger is set to miss out again along, but Chris Wood could make the bench.

Bournemouth

  • Stephen Henderson is out for three months with a shoulder injury, so Ryan Allsop is expected to return in goal.

Prediction

  • Five wins from six games at home for Leicester City this season is turning the King Power stadium into a Championship fortress.
  • The Foxes are just three points off the leaders Burnley and could break into the top two on Saturday with the Clarets facing second place QPR.
  • Bournemouth are still sitting pretty in the top half of the table despite just one win in five games.
  • One win on the road so far this season is a worry for the Cherries though and they are unlikely to improve that statistic here.

Leicester 2 - 1 Bournemouth
