Leicester XI vs Fulham: confirmed team news and predictions | OneFootball

Leicester City Football Club welcome Fulham to King Power Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The visitors currently sit 10th in the Premier League. After an eye-catching campaign, the west London outfit could have expected to be slightly higher in the table. And the Cottagers will obviously fancy their chances against a Foxes side that is finding it very difficult, almost impossible, to keep its head above water.

Fulham's recent top flight progress has halted or declined somewhat of late, however. They were unable to see off another relegation-threatened team in Ipswich Town nearly a fortnight ago. Then Marco Silva's men lost to West Ham United, who are a similarly struggling club. Nevertheless, Leicester's form and plight is arguably the worst of the lot. A concerning season continues.

Ruud van Nistelrooy's squad haven't managed a win in seven (that's seven) EPL matches. I quite like the Dutchman, and he's clearly inherited an inadequate roster. But he will begin to come under fire soon unless results change for the good. And rightly so following six consecutive league defeats. With all that in mind, what did RvN reveal fitness-wise? And how do we expect the east Midlanders to line up?

Confirmed Leicester City team news and predictions for Fulham clash

First of all if you weren't aware, City made a signing this week. Right back Woyo Coulibaly came to the King Power. And the Frenchman may play against the Cottagers if called upon. That's if paper work is completed.

Leicester will be without four players through injury this weekend: Wilfred Ndidi, Abdul Fatawu, Ricardo Pereira and Mads Hermansen. The latter is slowly progressing according to van Nistelrooy. Therefore the Dane will be assessed next week.
