Recent respective form guides

Leicester City's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. The Foxes's have scored 6 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 8.

Wolves's away form is none too clever either, collecting 2 wins and 3 draws from the last six. Just 7 goals have scored in these games, though to be fair only a measly 4 have been let in at the wrong end.

Leicester City are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 29 points from 31 matches. Wolves's 43 points from 30 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 9th position.
