Manchester City return to Premier League action this weekend as they welcome Leicester City to the Etihad on Saturday. The final week of the season is a essential one for City, who need to win all three matches to secure automatic qualification to the Champions League group stage next season.
City come into this one in great form, unbeaten in five matches and coming off a sensational victory against Crystal Palace. The Sky Blues dominated most of the match and scored some amazing goals to beat a tough opponent and put themselves in pole position to finish in the Top 4.
The next big step towards a Champions League place is a win against Leicester, but that won’t be easy. The combined score from the last two games between these two is a whopping 7-3 in favor of the Foxes, who won at the Etihad last season in the middle of their incredible title run, and destroyed the Blues at the King Power last November in the most painful loss of the Guardiola Era.
After a tough start to the season that led to Claudio Ranieri’s sacking, the Foxes are finishing strong thanks to Craig Shakespeare’s appointment. Leicester have virtually the same team and tactics as last season, and they’ll be looking to get another shock result at the Etihad.
Can City hunt the Foxes this time around?
