Can We Beat Rennes?! Match Preview by Ethan Farmer!

Leicester City Vs Stade Rennais preview The Foxes host Stade Rennais who sit 4th in Ligue 1. However, with Leicester’s recent form, they will have some confidence that they can progress into the next round of the Europa Conference League. Brendan Rodgers’ side have only lost one of their last six matches, winning four. Some would argue the Leeds result was fortunate, especially as they only generated to 0.34 xG to Leeds United’s 2.14 (Understat). But after their dominant two performances over Randers, winning 7-2 on aggregate, Leicester fans can feel optimistic. However, they should still be weary. Rennes have…

Can We Beat The Burnley Brickhouses?! Preview by Ethan Farmer

Burnley Vs Leicester Preview The Foxes travel to Turf Moor to face a resurgent Burnley in a midweek clash. Leicester are winless in the league this calendar year with their last win the 1-0 victory over Liverpool. This run consists of five matches, three ending in defeat.
