Wout Faes of Leicester City may be glad to see 2022 go after he made history by being just the fourth player in Premier League (PL) history to score two own goals in the same match as the Foxes lost 2-1 to Liverpool towards the end of the year. In fact, considering their fall from serious European contenders last season to relegation contenders this season, Leicester themselves may be relieved to see 2022 go. Brendan Rodgers, the manager, will undoubtedly wish for a more prosperous 2023, and he could fancy his team’s chances of extending their lead above the relegation zone after winning nine of their previous 14 league games to start the year. However, Leicester’s recent home league losses “to 0” heading into this game threaten to make that record even worse, as they are now on the danger of dropping three straight top-flight home games without scoring for the first time since 1983.

Fulham has scored in all but two of its Premier League games this season, the most recent of which was a 2-1 triumph over struggling Southampton on Saturday. That outcome concluded a strong 2022 for Fulham, who have adjusted well to life back in the Premier League and enter this match eight points ahead of their opponents after winning four of their previous eight league games. The fact that both of those losses were due to goals scored in stoppage time against Manchester clubs demonstrates exactly how difficult it is to defeat Fulham at the moment. Though they have only won one of their last 23 Premier League away games in the month of January, the Cottagers did begin their 2022 away league campaign with a 7-0 victory, albeit against Reading in the Championship.

Probable Lineups 

Jamie Vardy may start at centre forward for Leicester after Patson Daka was forced to leave the game against Liverpool in the first half due to hamstring pain. At full-back, Ryan Bertrand, James Justin, and Ricardo Pereira are all absent due to injuries, therefore Timothy Castagne and Luke Thomas are expected to hold their positions.

Aleksandar Mitrovic should lead the Fulham attack despite missing a penalty in that match. The Serbian forward is hoping to add to his 10 Premier League goals this season. Willian and Bobby Reid will likely be the supporting cast on each side of the striker, with Andreas Pereira expected to play right behind them.

Leicester probable starting lineup:  Ward; Castagne, Amartey, Faes, Thomas; Soumare, Ndidi; Barnes, Perez, Dewsbury-Hall; Vardy

Fulham probable starting lineup: Leno; Tete, Diop, Ream, Robinson; Reed, Palhinha; Reid, Pereira, Willian; Mitrovic
