Match Preview:

Leicester will be looking to win their first game in 3 matches when they welcome Stoke to the King Power Stadium for this Saturday lunchtime kick off.

Whilst the Foxes have improved in the second half of the season they are currently experiencing poor form having lost to Everton and then drawing at home to Swansea City. In their last league game they were destroyed 5-1 away to Manchester City, but the clubs home form is much better where they have not lost a game since December 16^th.

Stoke are currently in the relegation zone in 19^th position and have not won a game in a month. A win here could see them escape the bottom three depending on other results and so they will be highly motivated as the bottom half of the table remains very tight.

However there is one statistic that stands out: Stoke has the worst away record in the Premier League. From 13 matches they have won just once, losing 9 matches. They have conceded the most goals (32) on the road and have lost their last 3 matches in a row.
