Final Match Before World Cup!

Leicester look to make it back-to-back wins in the Premier league after a comfortable 2-0 victory against Everton last weekend, with a trip to London to face David Moyes’ West Ham.

It was a great result against Everton for Leicester, as a stunner from Youri Tielemans and a late goal from Harvey Barnes saw them leave Goodison with all 3 points.

The result sees Leicester move up into 14^th spot, back out of the relegation zone and just 2 points away from 11^th.

Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers will now turn his intentions to West Ham, who have started the season rather poorly, sitting below Leicester in 15^th place after 2 losses in a row in the Premier League.

It is a rather big game for Leicester, as it is the last round of fixtures for over a month as the World Cup begins, and they will hope to be on a high when they return after Christmas.

The Foxes’ full back James Justin is expected to miss the game, after being stretchered off in the midweek cup game against Newport, so it is unclear who will replace him.

Some good news for fans is that experienced centre back Johnny Evans is likely to be back in the side after missing out multiple weeks with an injury, returned and is expected to be back in the side alongside Wout Faes.

Ricardo Pereira and Ryan Bertrand both also remain injured and won’t be included in the side. 

The last two times these sides met; West Ham’s Craig Dawson scored a 91^st minute equaliser at the King Power Stadium to make draw level at 2-2 as the points were shared.

Leicester will be hoping to move even further away from the relegation zone after such a slow start to the season, and a win would do exactly that.
