Leicester 1 – 1 Roma by Ethan Farmer

Leicester 1-1 Roma The semi-final remains in balance following Gianluca Mancini’s own goal to cancel out Roma’s opener through Lorenzo Pellegrini. The visitor’s struck early as in the 15th minute Nicola Zalewski played in captain Pellegrini who finished underneath Kasper Schmeichel. This suited José Mourinho’s plan as his Roma side sat back to defend the lead. Leicester didn’t let this unsettle them and they controlled the game, not allowing Roma many chances. However, it took until the 67th minute for them to get their breakthrough. Harvey Barnes’ cross was aimed for Ademola Lookman but instead Mancini bundled it in to…

Semi-Final European Cup! By Ethan Farmer

The Foxes aim to take charge of the Europa Conference League semi-finals against José Mourinho’s Roma side. Brendan Rodgers’ men come into this match on the back of their lacklustre 0-0 draw at home to Aston Villa. The Villains dominated the match with the majority of possession and only allowing the Foxes to have two shots on target. With nothing to play for in the league, Leicester have only won one of their last five domestic games, two of their last seven factoring in the Europa Conference League. On the other side, Roma are coming into this following a 3-1…

A massive 6 pointer! Preview by Ethan Farmer

Leicester City host the Villains in a Midlands midtable clash. However, despite the league positions, Aston Villa come into this with the upper hand. Steven Gerrard’s side won the reverse fixture 2-1 earlier this season. Whilst last season, Villa left the King Power with all three points following Ross Barkley’s 90th minute winner. This won’t give the hosts much confidence going into the match. However, Brendan Rodgers has an alright record against the West Midlands outfit. The Northern Irish manager has won eight of his 17 matches against them, losing six. Predicted line-up: Goalkeeper – Kasper Schmeichel Right-Back – Ricardo…

Can we devour the Toffees?! Preview by Ethan Farmer

Leicester City’s season is all but over domestically. Despite their games in hand and fairly easy run in, seventh look out of reach. As well as this, they are out of the FA Cup meaning all their attention is on the Europa Conference League. However, they will still want to win their remaining Premier League matches to end the season as well as possible for their fans. A trip to Goodison Park isn’t as easy as it seems on paper. Everton have struggled all season and linger low in the table. But they have to fight for their survival and…

Foxes looking to continue fine league form. By Matt Ballard

Leicester will be looking to put pressure on Wolves as they play one of their games in hand this weekend against Newcastle. City have gone from not getting midtable to an outside shot at a top-eight finish, and it's no coincidence that the fine run of form has coincided with the return of many first-team players such as Fofana and Evans. Newcastle will be no pushovers; they have been on a fantastic run of form since Eddie Howe managed to get signings in during the January window, which has propelled them from the relegation zone to relative safety in 15th.…
