Despite being pretty much what has looked like Enzo’s first choice team (except maybe Fatawu, who’s obviously newer to us), that bench still looks very strong for this division.

Like it. Strong team.

Exactly what I was just thinking - 6 of them would probably be guaranteed starters for every other team and the rest aren't far off either!

 

[TommyK]

Top goalscorer on the bench too.

Matty James captain for Bristol City.

And I assume King on the bench is of the Andy variety.

Keep 'em guessing!

This is the first league meeting between Leicester City and Bristol City since 2012-13 – the Foxes won both games that season under current Robins boss Nigel Pearson.

Bristol City have won just two of their last 19 away league visits to Leicester City (D7 L10) although they have been within their last four games there (3-1 in 2009-10, 2-1 in 2011-12).

Leicester City have gone 16 home league matches without keeping a clean sheet, last enduring a worse run between January and December 1957 (21 in a row).

Bristol City have picked up 10 points in their last three away league matches (W3 D1), as many as in their previous 11 on the road (W2 D4 L5).

Having lost 1-0 to Hull at the King Power Stadium last time out, Leicester are looking to avoid losing consecutive home Championship games for the first time since March 2013, when their manager was Nigel Pearson.

I think McAteer and Justin are unlucky to miss out.

But I do think we're starting to see more rotation now rather than a fixed starting lineup, so everyone will get their chance.

Interested to see what Fatawu does in his first start.

Foxes Hub shits the bed. Again.

 

[Orifice]

Are we winning yet?

 

[Miles Away]

Can't even get live audio to work. What a joke.

 

[Orifice]

I can't even get Radio Leicester here. This is rubbish.

Foxes Hub shits the bed. Again.

Foxes Hub is filthy, $40 a month and doesn't work.

Any idea why they deleted the one in the first post? The team looks the same to me.

I’m fairly sure Ricardo was listed as captain in the original, but this one says Vardy now.
