Praet (14' ), for Leicester City, and by D. Ings (81' ) and S. Armstrong (19' ), for Southampton.

In the last match, they have won in an away match against Newcastle United by (1‑2), after in the previous match they have tied (1‑1) an away match against Crystal Palace. This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since they have won 22 points in away matches, with 20 goals scored and 9 conceded, against 10 points won at their stadium, with 11 goals scored and 12 conceded. In their last match, for the FA Cup, they got an away win against Stoke City by (0‑4). In the last 8 home league matches Leicester City has a record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 24 possible.

In the last round of the Premier League, the home team beat Newcastle (1-2). In this match against Southampton, coach Brendan Rodgers should keep 4-3-3, with Harvey Barnes, Marc Albrighton and Jamie Vardy: the latter is the top scorer, with 11 goals scored. For this match the manager cannot count on Dennis Praet due to physical problems.
