All four teams in Group C of the Europa League have a chance of advancing to the next stage, and Leicester will be hoping they grab one of the slots. They will move closer to that if they can fashion a win over visiting Legia Warsaw on Thursday. Going into this game, third placed Leicester have five points while Legia Warsaw have six points. Leicester lost 1-0 to Legia in the first meeting and will be out to avoid another loss here. They are coming from a comprehensive 3-0 loss to Chelsea in their last game and have now failed to win any of their last five in regular time. Leicester have had issues in defence; they are struggling to keep clean sheets and it is affecting their confidence in general. They are however compensating for this with their abilities in attack, and that should be able to show in this game. They have scored in seven of their last 10 matches and in five of them it has been two or more goals.

Legia Warsaw are on a bad run too, though theirs is worse than Leicester’s; in their last 10 matches, they’ve lost eight and won just twice. They managed a 1-0 win over Leicester in their earlier meeting in this group and will be eyeing a double. In their form, especially in defence, that may be tough to achieve; Legia have conceded 12 goals in just their last four matches and all these have ended in defeats. In seven of their last 10 matches, they have conceded two or more goals and they head to this game with two straight losses in Europa League. They have conceded seven goals in those two losses. Their away form isn’t better either, with four losses in the last five, and they’ve conceded three or more in the four defeats.
