Leicester City will be keen to maintain the winning feeling when they face Derby County in a pre-season friendly on Saturday. The Foxes had a slow start to their warm-up matches in the summer and took a while to get going. However, they won their last game in a convincing 4-0 manner against Hull City, which should provide them with a lot of confidence ahead of this fixture. Meanwhile, Derby County have put their recent off-field concerns behind them and have been busy in the transfer market, as they continue to prepare for life at League One in the coming season.

Last season was not one to remember for Leicester City, as they could only manage an eight-place finish in the Premier League. Overall, Brendan Rodgers’ side got 52 points from 38 games. It means Leicester will have no European football this season. On the other hand, Derby County got relegated from the Championship after finishing 23rd in the table. They will hope to start life in League One in the best possible way and gain promotion back to the second division as quickly as possible.
