The Premier League is back in action with another round of matches this week as Fulham lock horns with a struggling Leicester City side in an important encounter at Craven Cottage on Monday.
Fulham vs Leicester City Preview
Fulham are currently in 10th place in the Premier League standings and have been plagued by inconsistency so far this season. The Cottagers suffered a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Liverpool in the previous game and will need to bounce back this weekend.
Leicester City, on the other hand, are in 16th place in the league table at the moment and have not been at their best so far. The Foxes were held to a disappointing 2-2 draw by Everton last week and will need to take it up a notch in this fixture.
