Leicester City are rooted at the foot of the table and have just a solitary point from the opening six games. They are also on a five-match losing streak.
Antonio Conte will be keen to see his Tottenham Hotspur side bounce back from Champions League disappointment when they host bottom side Leicester City in the Premier League. The weekend clash will see two sides sitting at the opposite ends of the table going head-to-head with each other. Spurs, one of the only two teams still unbeaten in the league, did lose their Champions League group match against Sporting Lisbon 2-0 in midweek. As a result, they will be eager to get back to the winning ways when they face a struggling Leicester side.

Both sides do not have many injured players to worry about ahead of the Saturday clash. However, the managers will be more concerned about the team selection. Tottenham travelled to Portugal for the Champions League encounter, hence there is a possibility that some of those players might be rotated for fresh legs. Lucas Moura is their notable absentee for this match. Meanwhile, Leicester City will be sweating over the fitness concerns of Dennis Praet, while they will miss Ryan Bertrand and Ricardo Pereira. Otherwise, they will have more or less everybody fit for this encounter.
