Leicester got off to a poor start to the new season. In the first round, the Foxes hosted Brentford holding the lead until the 62nd minute. Then, in the final third of the match they somehow conceded two unanswered goals and missed the victory (2:2). In the second round, Brendan Rodgers' team lost to a well-behaved Arsenal, but gave them a fight (2:4).

Southampton began the campaign with a devastating defeat. In the first leg, the Saints fell to Tottenham 1:4 despite dominating the score in that game. Then, however, they collapsed. The second round was more successful for Ralph Hasenhüttl's charges. Southampton hosted Leeds, losing by two goals (0:2) until the 72nd minute, but showing character and get back into the game (2:2).

Analysts consider Leicester to be the favorite in the match. But we would not be too quick to neglect Southampton. The Saints are the strong club from the standings' middle who have spirit, as they proved in the last round. The Foxes, let's be honest, are playing the same role and have not started the new season particularly well. We think the visitors can earn points at King Power. Prediction: Southampton will not lose.
