Stoke City v Leicester City: match preview


Stoke will be still be riding high after completing a shock away victory against Man City last time out. They will be doubly buoyed by the fact they are unbeaten against Leicester in their last five meetings at the Britannia Stadium. Nigel Person's Leicester are still searching for a win this season but strong showings against Everton and Arsenal this season mean it should come soon for the Foxes. Graham Searles
