Leicester have the home advantage in the Premier League this weekend but the Foxes have been struggling in their own backyard of late. Fulham provide the opposition at The King Power Stadium and Marco Silav's side will be looking to bounce back following a disappointing defeat at West Ham in midweek.

Leicester preview: Lost five of last six
The Foxes would have been looking to make the most of their home advantage against Crystal Palace in midweek but ended up suffering yet another defeat.
Following a goalless first half, the Eagles took the lead in the 52nd minute and made sure of the three points late on with a rare goal from centre-back Marc Gueki, making it six defeats on the run for Leicester in the Premier League.
Issahaku Fatawu, Wilfred Ndidi, Mads Hermansen, Odsonne Edouard and Ricardo Pereira could all miss the Fulham game this weekend due to injury.
Predicted lineup: Stolarczyk (GK), Vestergaard, Faes, Justin, Kristiansen, Winks, Soumare, El Khannouss, Buonanotte, Vardy & Mavididi

Fulham preview: Unbeaten run ended
Fulham, and particularly their goalkeeper Bernd Leno, through away a great chance of winning away at West Ham last time out. The goalkeeper was at fault for two of the home side's three goals and Marco Silva took Alex Iwobi off late on despite the Nigerian international scoring both of Fulham's goals and looking like their best source of an equaliser.
Saturday's guests could be without the services of Kenny Tete, Reiss Nelson and Sander Berge for the trip to the midlands.
Predicted lineup: Leno (GK), Andersen, Castagne, Robinson, Bassey, Lukic, Pereira, Wilson, Smith Rowe, Jimenez & Iwobi

Player to watch – Alex Iwobi
Alex Iwobi has been fantastic for Fulham this season, chipping in with plenty of goals and a few assists in the Premier League.
The Nigerian international has scored seven times in the league this season and is only one goal behind the club's top scorer Raul Jimenez, as well as chipping in with three assists.
One of Fulham's best players this season
Iwobi starred against West Ham in midweek and we're backing the midfielder to put in another excellent performance against a struggling Leicester City side on Saturday.
