Leicester City and Wrexham face off this Tuesday at the King Power Stadium in EFL Championship.
Leicester City have picked up 12 points and currently lie in 5th position. Last time out, Martí Cifuentes's team drew 1-1 against West Bromwich (EFL Championship 2025/26).
Wrexham have won 8 points to date and are placed in 15th position. In their last fixture, Phil Parkinson's team shared the spoils 1-1 with Derby County (EFL Championship 2025/26).
The last meeting between the two teams ended in a 0-0 draw.
Craig Jones : A quick turnaround for the first midweek game of the season!
This game sees Wrexham's first ever visit to the King Power Stadium and the first time we have played Leicester City since 1982 - when Gary Lineker was in their team.
We come into the game on the back of a home draw against Derby, in which we played ok but couldn't hold on for that first home league win.
Once again, we were punished after another slight defensive mistake and we're definitely realising the quality of this league now.
Wrexham are seeking a third consecutive away league win, but know that will be a very tough ask against one of the best sides in the league.
Leicester haven't started all guns blazing though and have got more points than they perhaps have deserved. They do possess some quality players and Wrexham will have to be at their best to get something from this.
I'm expecting the same XI to start that began against Derby on Saturday. The only slight doubts are that Issa Kabore and Kieffer Moore did come off with knocks, but hopefully they have enough time to recover.
The three at the back should stay the same as they have looked more compact than earlier in the season.
The impressive Sheaf, O'Brien and Dobson are expected to keep their places in a strong midfield, with Windass just ahead of them.
Ollie Rathbone may finally make his anticipated return to the squad also.
A point for Wrexham at Leicester would be great. A win would be fantastic!
It's going to be tough but I'm hoping we can come away with at least a point and I'm going for a 1-1 draw!
