LEICESTER CITY will be looking to land their first Premier League win of the season when they face Nottingham Forest at the King Power Stadium on Monday night.
The Foxes are the only team in English top-flight that have yet to record a victory this term and as a result they find themselves rooted to the foot of the table following seven rounds of fixtures.
Brendan Rodgers’ side were left bruised before the international break as they were trounced 6-2 by Tottenham, in a game where my anytime goalscorer bet landed.
That latest setback has added to the pressure that is beginning to mount on manager Rodgers and he may have to secure a maiden league win of the season against Nottingham Forest on Monday night if he is to avoid the axe.
Steve Cooper’s side have endured a baptism of fire since their return to the top-flight, falling to defeat in five of their seven league games so far, including each of their last four.
The Tricky Trees’ inability to hold on when in front has become a recurring theme in recent weeks, with their most recent loss coming against Fulham in a 3-2 thriller at the City Ground a fortnight ago.
