Manchester City take on Leicester City this weekend

The Premier League returns to the fold with another set of matches this weekend as Leicester City take on Pep Guardiola's Manchester City side in an important encounter at the King Power Stadium on Sunday. Both teams have been in poor form this season and will want to win this game.

Manchester City, on the other hand, are in seventh place in the league table and have failed to meet expectations this season. The away side played out a 1-1 draw against Everton last week and will need to take it up a notch in this fixture.
