Leicester City will be looking to keep alive their hopes of an immediate return to the English top flight when they face Bristol City away on Friday.
Bristol City finished last season in 14th place and are currently in the same position. After beating Swansea at the beginning of March, the Robins had the chance to record back to back wins prior to the international break when they travelled to West Brom Albion. Liam Manning's side suffered a defeat without scoring and will be looking to respond on Friday.
Leicester City meanwhile looked set to finish top of the Championship at the end of the season after the first few matchdays, but their form has dipped in recent weeks. The Foxes went into the international break with just one win from five league games and have dropped to second place as a result.
Betting Tips Bristol City vs Leicester City: Leicester to win
Bristol City simply cannot defend at the moment. The hosts have kept just two clean sheets in their last thirteen games in all competitions and shipped at least two goals in three of the last five.
Leicester City are well capable of dispatching any opponent on a good day. The Foxes currently have the best attack in the league and the last time they failed to score was in November last year. Leicester also have a great record against Bristol City, having won each of the last three meetings.

Leicester City team news
As far as Leicester City are concerned, they will be buoyed by the return of Ricardo Pereira, Wilfred Ndidi and Jamie Vardy to fitness.
A booking for either Wout Faes or Jamie Vardy will result in a one match suspension but head coach Enzo Maresca has no other issues to report ahead of the trip to Bristol City.
