PREDICTION
Leicester City gained promotion to the Premier League as winners of last season’s Championship but the Foxes have since lost coach Enzo Maresca to Chelsea. Former Nottingham Forest coach Steve Cooper is now in charge of quite a small squad that clearly lacks quality in lots of key areas and they have endured a difficult summer transfer window, too. They take on a Tottenham Hotspur side that should be refreshed under Ange Postecoglou after a poor end to last season but the injection of youth and quality in attacking areas, such as Lucas Bergvall, Wilson Odobert and Dominic Solanke, should massively help and they are firm favourites to get what could be a comfortable opening day victory at the King Power Stadium.
