Leicester City take on Blackburn Rovers in the 13th round of games in the Championship on Saturday. The two sides are perched in opposite halves of the standings.

Following a second straight defeat, the 2023-24 champions are 10th in the points table, with 17 points from 12 games, winning four.

Meanwhile, Valerin Ismael's Blackburn are coming off a 2-1 home win over Southampton. The Saints went ahead through Leo Socienza midway through the first period as they led at the break.

The Rovers equalised through Ryan Alebiosu 14 minutes from time before Andri Gudjohnsen netted the winner 10 minutes. Welington saw red for the Saints four minutes into stoppage time as the visitors returned to winning ways after consecutive losses.

Out of the drop zone following the win, the Rovers are now 21st in the standings, with 10 points from 11 games, winning three.
