Match Overview

Burton Albion take on Leicester City in the first round of their EFL Cup match on Wednesday at the Pirelli Stadium. The visiting side have just been relegated from the Premier League and are going through a rough patch of sorts with most of their top players leaving for pastures new. Having beaten Coventry City in their previous match, Leicester will feel confident of their efforts. 

Key Highlights

Burton Albion, who have won just one match out of the last five that they have played, will feel dazed by the challenge posed to them by Leicester City in this game. However, they have only been beaten on two occasions out of those five encounters, and one can say that their defenders have been on top of their game more often than not in the recent past.

Injury Report

New signing Conor Coady, who arrived from Everton in the ongoing transfer window to Leicester City, will not be available for selection owing to an injury. Burton Albion do not have any major absentees in their squad.

Prediction

We expect Leicester City to win this game quite comfortably. Although they were relegated from the Premier League at the end of last season, they still have the players who can perform well at this level of the game. Burton Albion's defenders, good that they have been, need to be prepared for the challenge that will come their way on Wednesday.
