Leicester City Predicted Lineup vs QPR in EFL Championship

How Leicester City Have Lined-up Recently

Unexpectedly, manager Enzo Maresca chose not to make the drastic changes that were anticipated when facing Sunderland on Tuesday night. This choice proved to be wise as his formidable team faced the most formidable opponents of the season thus far. The league leaders confidently answered queries asked by an attacking Sunderland squad. The spirited 1-0 triumph was evidence of a superb effort.

With his impressive performance, Cesare Casadei won the Man of the Match award as he filled Wilfred Ndidi’s large shoes. Jamie Vardy was replaced up front by Kelechi Iheanacho as was predicted, although he seemed a little lackluster this time.

Leicester City Recent Form and Tactics

The team from the East Midlands has begun a tier-two season with the best start in more than a century. They lead the standings with 36 points out of a possible 39, having only lost three points thus far. There is a massive 14-point deficit to Leeds United, who are in third place. With such a large gap, many analysts and supporters are already discussing a prompt return to the Premier League.

When the team is attacking, Ricardo Pereira, the right defender, is typically instructed to take up a midfield position. This approach has been used by the team the entire season. Adding this extra man in the middle of the field has surely increased the attacking danger. The Italian manager’s preferred style of play can be detrimental to any style of play, as demonstrated by Sunderland’s latest challenge to the club.

This season, QPR is having difficulty in the Championship. They have lost five straight games and have not won a league game in eighteen attempts. In theory, based on current performance, this is a David against. Goliath situation.

Leicester City Injuries to Consider

A muscular problem will keep Wilfred Ndidi out of the game. Although they are not yet match fit, Kasey McAteer and Tom Cannon have resumed their training. Callum Doyle will probably miss an additional six weeks of action. Before being taken into consideration, Dennis Praet is still listed as injured for one more week.
