Manchester City vs Leicester 26.12.2021

Leicester City are fresh from a painful exit from the EFL Cup after losing on Penalties to Liverpool on Wednesday. The Foxes will now turn their attention to the Premier League as they look to move up on the table.

Manchester City are top of the log and they will want to keep that way with another victory over Leicester City. Although recent meetings between both sides have been close, with City edging Leicester with just a win more in their last five meetings.

Both teams will attack with great intensity and we expect that to result in a torrent of corners for both sides.
