Leicester City will be looking for another win today to secure their return to the Premier League.Stoke City strengthened their squad during the transfer window and these additions could strengthen it at the end of the season.A win for Stoke against Leicester would be a significant statement of intent and could help lift spirits after back-to-back league defeats.
However, David Prutton predicted a win for the Foxes..The Foxes have been brilliant throughout the campaign, although they have had a few blips.Their 3-1 win over Swansea City in midweek took them a step closer to a return to the Premier League at the first time of asking, which must be their main target despite failing to strengthen their squad in the January transfer window..They may have lost Cesare Casadei but should have enough depth to cope without the Italian, who made a positive impact but may not have been overlooked as he received criticism along with Enzo Maresca and #039.Stoke meanwhile strengthened their squad with Daniel Iversen,
Luke Cundle, Million Manhoef and Niall Ennis all arriving in Staffordshire.Strengthening several areas of their squad, the Potters can be confident of securing a respectable league place at the end of this season, but despite home advantage, they may not have secured the three points this afternoon..Given the strength of Leicester’s squad, it would be a real treat if Stoke were to win today.Foxes are not invincible and we have seen it a few times during this time.But if Stoke manage to win, it will probably be more impressive than the Coventry and a win because the Foxes had ten men at the Coventry Building Society arena.Even a draw wouldn’t be bad for the Potters this afternoon..But a win would help lift spirits after back-to-back league defeats. The Potters will get a boost from their new additions which should help them..
