Leicester City and West Ham United will lock horns with each other in the Premier League this coming weekend. The match between the Foxes and the Hammers will be held at the King Power Stadium and is scheduled to kick off at 4:30pm UK time on Sunday.
Leicester City
Leicester City won the Premier League title not so long ago, but they have been really poor this season and could end up in the Championship at the end of the campaign. The Foxes are now looking very likely to finish in the bottom three of the Premier League table this season.
The Foxes are third from bottom in the Premier League table at the moment with 31 points from 37 matches. Leicester are two points behind 17th-placed Everton and level on points with second-from-bottom Leeds United. Dean Smith’s side could still survive on the final day of the season, but it is looking very slim.
Leicester will head into the Premier League match against West Ham United at the King Power Stadium on Sunday on the back of a goalless draw with Newcastle United away from home at St. James’ Park in the league. It came after a 3-0 loss at the hands of Liverpool at the King Power Stadium in the Premier League and followed a 5-3 defeat to Fulham at Craven Cottage in London in the league.
Team News:
Leicester City interim manage Dean Smith is likely to line up in a 5-3-2 formation. Jamie Vardy and Kelechi Iheanacho will line the lead for the former Premier League champions. Youri Tielemans and James Maddison will start for the Foxes in midfield.
West Ham United
West Ham United have long looked lost in the Premier League and were in danger of getting relegated. However, things have improved for the Hammers in recent weeks, and now the London club are safe. There is no worry for West Ham at all on the final day of the season.
The Hammers are 14th in the Premier League table at the moment with 40 points from 37 matches. David Moyes’s side are nine points above the relegation zone and can take it easy on the final day of the Premier League season. They have the UEFA Europa Conference League final to look forward to.
West Ham will head into the Premier League match against Leicester City away from home at the King Power Stadium on Sunday on the back of a 3-1 victory over Leeds United at London Stadium in the league. It came after a 1-0 victory over AZ Alkmaar away from home in the second leg of the UEFA Europa Conference League semi-final tie.
Team News:
West Ham United manager David Moyes is likely to deploy a 4-2-3-1 formation. Danny Ings will lead the line for the Hammers. Jarrod Bowen, Lucas Paqeuta and Pablo Fornals will start in attacking midfield.

The Hammers will be keen on ending their Premier League campaign on a positive note, and it is very likely that the match will end in a draw.
