Leicester City's Home Opener: Can They Secure First Win?
22 Aug
Summary
- Leicester City plays their first home League One match against Burton.
- The Foxes drew 1-1 away at Notts County in their last fixture.
- Conor Chaplin might debut after signing from Ipswich Town.
Leicester City is set to play their first home League One match of the season against Burton Albion this Saturday. The team enters the game following a 1-1 draw on the road against Notts County last time out. Jayden Joseph scored his initial goal for the club, but Conor Grant's late equalizer for the opposition prevented a victory.
Manager Russell Martin's squad will host Burton at the King Power Stadium for what is the first league encounter between these two clubs. Forward Conor Chaplin is a potential debutant, having joined from Ipswich Town in July on a free transfer. He has been unavailable for the opening fixtures.
The upcoming fixture marks the beginning of a busy period for City. They are scheduled to travel to Ipswich Town for a Carabao Cup match on Tuesday evening, followed by another League One away game against MK Dons the subsequent weekend.
