🆚 Leicester City
🏟 King Power Stadium
🏆 Premier League
🗓 Saturday 18th January

#️⃣ LEIFUL
The opposition
It's been a tough season for Leicester, who currently sit second bottom in the Premier League after a run of six straight defeats. The Foxes had only won two league games - including one against fellow strugglers Southampton - at the time of manager Steve Cooper's sacking in late November.
His replacement Ruud van Nistelrooy kicked off with a statement win over West Ham and a draw with Brighton, but has failed to pick up any points since then. Despite that, a win on Saturday could pull them out of the drop zone, meaning the Foxes will be fighting for their lives.
Team news
🦊 New signing Woyo Coulibaly is waiting for paperwork to be completed before he can train with his new team. Goalkeeper Mads Hermansen is out injured.
🤍 Marco Silva confirmed that Sander Berge will be available for selection, but Reiss Nelson and Kenny Tete remain ruled out.
Tickets
Fulham will be backed by a sold-out away end, with tickets no longer available. Fans can join the waiting list here.
Kits
Leicester will wear their traditional blue, while Fulham will again be in their famous white.
Coverage
FFCtv subscribers can listen to commentary from Gentleman Jim and Jamie Reid, while the game will be broadcast on Peacock in the United States.
Weather
☁️ The early morning mist should have faded by kick-off, but the light winds will remain. It's forecast to be a dry afternoon in the East Midlands with temperatures of around three degrees.
