Leicester vs Coventry Prediction: Team News, Line-Ups, & Form
Leicester:
Leicester surprised many by becoming one of the three teams to be relegated from the Premier League. The former champions, though, have been able to retain most of the best players including the likes of Jamie Vardy. As a result, Leicester start the new season as the big favourites to get promoted straight back up. Coach Enzo Maresca has no injury concerns in the squad.
Predicted Line-Up:
Danny Ward, Timothy Castagne, Harry Souttar, Wout Faes, Victor Kristiansen, O. Wilfred Ndidi, Boubakary Soumaré, Wanya Marçal, Kasey McAteer, Kelechi Iheanacho, Jamie Vardy
Coventry:
Coventry have a very difficult start to the campaign with a match away against one of the favourites to get promoted. Despite this difficulty, manager Mark Robins will be able to take a lot of positives from the summer. Coventry have traditionally struggled in this fixture with only one win in all of the Championship games against the Foxes. Callum O'Hare is out because of a cruciate ligament injury.
Predicted Line-Up:
Ben Wilson, Luis Binks, Joel Latibeaudiere, Kyle McFadzean, Tatsuhiro Sakamoto, Ben Sheaf, Liam Kelly, Gustavo Hamer, Jake Bidwell, Ellis Simms, Matt Godden
Player to Watch: Jamie Vardy
Jamie Vardy came up with only three goals in the 2022-23 season. This was the first time he has failed to score in double figures since the 2014-15 season. Despite being 36, the forward is likely to have the skill to excel in the Championship – even if the Premier League is starting to become a step above.
Starting Leicester vs Coventry Lineups:
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
