Leicester – Bradford

Leicester host Bradford in what promises to be a decisive clash in the lower half of the table, with the Foxes sitting 13th on eight points after two wins, two draws and two defeats, scoring eight and conceding ten. Bradford arrive in the 3rd spot, buoyed by twelve points from four victories and two losses, and a modest +2 goal difference that belies their solid defensive record of only four goals conceded. The two sides have not met this season, but Leicester will be keen to close the gap on the promotion‑chasing pack, while Bradford will look to extend their lead over the chasing pack and keep the pressure on the leaders. A win for Leicester could lift them out of the relegation zone, whereas a slip for Bradford would see their momentum stall as the race for the top intensifies.
