Leicester v Swansea

Leicester vs Swansea Preview

Leicester City were held to a 1-1 draw at home by second placed Championship title rivals Ipswich Town last time out at the King Power Stadium and The Foxes will hold home advantage once again on Tuesday night when they play host to Welsh visitors, Swansea City, who were handed a heavy 3-1 defeat at home to Southampton in their last appearance in the Championship.

Leicester City have suffered just the one defeat out of their last 12 games in the English second tier which came in the form of a 3-1 loss away from home at Coventry City but The Foxes have also collected no fewer than eight wins in the process as well, making them overwhelming favourites to grab all three points in in Tuesday night's encounter.

Five of these eight wins have been registered on home soil at their King Power Stadium with victories gained over the likes of Watford 2-0, Plymouth Argyle 4-0, Millwall 3-2, Rotherham United 3-0 and a comprehensive 4-1 rout of Huddersfield Town, so the likelihood of further goals here on Tuesday night against Swansea City look set to unfold.

Swansea City slipped to a 3-1 defeat at home to Southampton last time out in the Championship which resulted with the Welsh visitors falling down the Championship table to 16th place and having found league wins hard to come by in recent times, the visitors look to have their work cut out ahead of this upcoming trip to the east midlands.

Indeed, The Swans have managed to register just three wins from their previous 14 league matches overall while also being handed five defeats during this period as well as picking up points in six stalemates.

Three of these five defeats were inflicted upon Luke Williams' side on their travels in recent weeks as his side have been dealt losses on the road at Ipswich Town 3-2, Leeds United 3-1 and a heavy 5-0 thrashing down on the south coast at Southampton.

Swansea City's best period of results this season were achieved in a four-match winning streak from the end of September through to early October as the Welsh club earned welcome wins against Sheffield Wednesday, Millwall, Norwich City and Plymouth Argyle respectively but since that purple patch of form, The Swans have collected just four wins from their subsequent 17 games.

On the road, Swansea City have managed to capture just four wins from their last 15 outings on their travels.
