Match Prediction: Leicester City 2-0 Wrexham

Leicester City's recent form suggests a team that is solid but struggling to convert draws into wins. Their last five matches have seen them draw three times, with two victories, indicating a need for more clinical finishing. Against Wrexham, they will likely dominate possession and look to exploit their opponents' defensive vulnerabilities, as seen in Wrexham's recent 3-1 loss to Queens Park Rangers.

Wrexham, on the other hand, have shown they can be unpredictable, with a mix of wins, draws, and a loss in their recent outings. Their ability to score, as demonstrated in their 3-2 victory over Norwich City, could pose a threat to Leicester. However, their defensive inconsistencies might be their downfall against a Leicester side that has kept three clean sheets in their last five games. The match could be closely contested, with Leicester's experience likely to edge them ahead.

Leicester City's recent form has been characterised by a series of draws, with three in their last five matches. This suggests a team that is defensively sound but struggling to find the cutting edge in attack. Their two wins, both without conceding, indicate a team with a solid foundation. This form could lead to a cautious approach against Wrexham, focusing on maintaining a strong defence while seeking opportunities to break through.

• Draw: 1-1 vs West Bromwich Albion (A)

• Draw: 0-0 vs Coventry City (H)

• Draw: 2-2 vs Oxford United (A)

• Win: 2-0 vs Birmingham City (H)

• Win: 1-0 vs Charlton Athletic (A)

Wrexham's recent results show a team capable of both scoring and conceding goals. Their 3-2 win against Norwich City highlights their offensive potential, but the 3-1 loss to Queens Park Rangers points to defensive frailties. This inconsistency could be a concern against a Leicester side that has shown defensive resilience. Wrexham will need to balance their attacking flair with a more disciplined defensive approach to compete effectively.

• Draw: 1-1 vs Derby County (H)

• Win: 3-2 vs Norwich City (A)

• Loss: 1-3 vs Queens Park Rangers (H)

• Win: 2-0 vs Millwall (A)

• Draw: 2-2 vs Sheffield Wednesday (H)

This is the first meeting between Leicester City and Wrexham making it difficult to draw conclusions. Both teams will need to rely on their recent performances and tactical setups to gain an advantage in this fixture.

• Liberato Cacace (Hamstring) - Doubt

• Predicted lineup: Stolarczyk, Pereira, Faes, Vestergaard, Thomas, Soumaré, Winks, Fatawu, James, Mavididi, Ayew

Leicester's predicted lineup suggests a focus on maintaining a strong defensive structure with players like Faes and Vestergaard, while relying on the creativity of Fatawu and Mavididi to unlock Wrexham's defence.

• Predicted lineup: Okonkwo, Cleworth, Hyam, Brunt, Kaboré, Dobson, Sheaf, Longman, Windass, O'Brien, Moore

Wrexham's predicted lineup indicates a strategy to counter-attack, with Moore leading the line and Windass and Sheaf providing support in midfield, aiming to exploit any gaps left by Leicester's forward play.

• Luke Thomas vs Issa Kaboré: This duel will see Leicester's left-back Thomas looking to  outmaneuvre Wrexham's right-sided midfielder Kaboré.

• Jannik Vestergaard vs Kiefer Moore: Leicester's centre-back Vestergaard will need to control the battle against Wrexham's powerful striker Moore.

• Ricardo Pereira (Leicester City): Pereira's creativity and work-rate on the right flank make him a crucial player for Leicester City.

• Ben Sheaf (Wrexham): Sheaf's role in midfield, providing both defensive solidity and offensive support, makes him a key player for Wrexham.
