PREDICTION
Under the management of former Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cooper, who replaced Championship winning manager Enzo Maresca last season, Leicester City are simply seeking to avoid relegation this season after what has been a difficult summer transfer window backed up by some underwhelming performances in their opening two matches. Aston Villa won on the opening day against West Ham United before suffering a 2-0 defeat against Arsenal last weekend but still looking very bright in that encounter at Villa Park. Leicester will intend to make it difficult for their midlands rivals but Villa simply look like comfortable winners for this one at the King Power Stadium.
