Match Preview
The pressure continues to build on Man City, as the reigning champions appear to be in a battle to finish in a Champions League spot this term. Any hope of retaining the top-flight title already looks to be out of reach, as they trail Liverpool by 14 points.
Wins have been in incredibly short supply for the champions in recent weeks. City have suffered defeats in two of their last three matches, and they have won just once across their last 14 in all competitions.

Leicester will also believe that they will need to improve their recent results. The Foxes have suffered defeats in each of their last three, and that has seen them drop into the relegation places following an excellent recent run of results by Wolves.
It only makes matters worse for the Foxes based on their poor recent results against City. Leicester have lost eleven of their last 13 against the champions, while they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their previous 15 against City.
Leicester vs. Man City Picks
Man City’s poor run of form is hard to ignore. However, the champions have won 19 of their last 20 matches against promoted sides in the Premier League. Therefore, the preference has to be for the reigning champions at the King Power on Sunday.
