Leeds United
Thursday’s football game between Leicester City and Leeds United will bring down the curtain on day 12 of the new Premier League campaign. The Foxes are stuck in the relegation zone with only five points in their pocket, but the midweek clash could be the turning point for Brendan Rodgers’ troops. The Northern Ireland tactician feels pressure ahead of the visit of Leeds, but, no doubt, his men are going to leave their hearts on the field this time out. Jamie Vardy is pushing for a recall to the starting XI, while all Wilfried Ndidi, Ricardo Pereira, Ryan Bertrand, and Jonny Evans are sidelined with injuries.
Important midfielder James Maddison is banned for the match. The Whites, on the other hand, failed to shock league leaders Arsenal at the weekend (0-1). Since Leeds collected only two points in total from the previous six league fixtures, we believe that the time has come for Leicester to get back on course in the English top flight. Both Dallas and Forshaw miss out with injuries, while Hjelde and Gray will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
Highlighted Player (Jamie Vardy):
Spending his early career playing no-league football, Jamie Vardy made the headlines when he joined Leicester City in a £1 million deal in 2012, but little did he know that he would go on to become a genuine Premier League star just three years later.
The experienced forward helped the Foxes gain promotion to the elite division and then score more than 20 goals as they mounted an unlikely title bid, earning worldwide acclaim as well as a place in the England squad. Vardy went on to score his first two goals for the Three Lions in March 2016 friendlies, with his back-heel goal against Germany in Berlin seeing him instantly become a fans’ favourite.
Over the years, Vardy has earned a reputation as a striker who never gives up and can be a real menace for opposition defenders, but his excellent goalscoring record and good link-up play are enough to suggest he can be described as a mix of old-style pacey forwards and modern strikers.
Highlighted Team (Leeds United):
Leeds United is one of the clubs that won the FA Cup. The Whites outplayed Arsenal in the final of the prestigious competition back in 1972, but they clinched the League Cup trophy as well. Leeds United faced the Gunners in the 1967/1968 League Cup final and it has to be noted that Terry Cooper scored the winner for the Whites.
Leeds play their home games at Elland Road and the capacity of the stadium is 37,914. The club was founded in 1919 and they have won three First Division (Premier League) trophies ever since (1968/1969, 1973/1974, 1991/1992). Leeds United made it to the Champions League final in 1975, but they were beaten by Bayern Munich in the title clash.
The Whites were impressive under David O’Leary. The likes of Jonathan Woodgate, Lee Bowyer, Harry Kewell, Mark Viduka and Ian Harte were part of the Elland Road outfit back then and they did well to reach the semis of the Champions League in 2001.
