Leicester City

Leicester City are having a disappointing season and are lacking the consistency they had over the past two campaigns. Brendan Rodgers’s side are not winning games on a consistent and are conceding far too many goals than they should.

The Foxes will head into the match against Spartak Moscow on the back of a 2-0 defeat to Arsenal at the King Power Stadium in the Premier League.

The former Premier League champions are third in Europa League Group C with four points from three matches, two points behind leaders Legia Warsaw.

Spartak Moscow

Spartak Moscow are in danger of getting knocked out of the Europa League. The Russian club are at the bottom of Group C at the moment with three points from three matches, three points behind leaders Legia Warsaw.
