Manchester City is going head to head with Leicester City starting on 15 Apr 2023 at 14:00 UTC at Etihad Stadium stadium, Manchester city, England. The match is a part of the Premier League. Manchester City played against Leicester City in 1 matches this season. Currently, Manchester City rank 2nd, while Leicester City hold 14th position. Leicester Women will look to claim consecutive victories in the Women’s Super League when they face Manchester City Women on Saturday.
The visitors have not lost a game since September, and they will be looking to extend their unbeaten run in all competitions to 16 matches. After experiencing a 16-game winless run in the WSL – which included 15 defeats – Leicester ended their long wait for a league win with a comfortable 3-0 victory over Brighton.
Goals from Aileen Whelan, Sam Tierney and Monique Robinson helped Leicester beat the Seagulls and claim their first points of the WSL season. Since their first league win of the season, Leicester have lost 1-0 to Saturday’s opponents in the League Cup, while they were knocked out of the FA Cup by Reading last weekend.
With the score level at 2-2 after extra time, the Foxes were subsequently beaten on penalties, leaving Willie Kirk’s side to focus on their battle to remain in the top-flight. Leicester are currently bottom of the WSL table, with four points separating them from safety, and although they will want to close that gap on Saturday, their head-to-head record suggests that may prove difficult, as Leicester have lost all seven competitive meetings with the Citizens.

Leicester City vs Man. City Prediction
We say: Leicester Women 0-2 Manchester City Women
Leicester have shown signs of improvement in recent weeks, and after strengthening their squad in January, they will believe that they can close the gap to safety.
However, we think that they will struggle to take anything off a Man City side who have won their last seven away matches in all competitions.
