In the Premier League, Leicester City plays Bournemouth on April 8 at the King Power Stadium. Brendan Rodgers, the hosts’ manager, was fired after a near-disastrous season that put them in the bottom half of the table.
In their most recent match, Leicester was defeated by Aston Villa, 2-1. Before the Villains scored a late winner thanks to a loose pass from Wilfred Ndidi, they appeared to be headed for a draw. With 25 points from 29 games, Leicester is 19th in the Premier League, just two points ahead of Southampton, which is last.
In contrast, Bournemouth is currently engaged in a struggle for survival and has also experienced difficulties this season. In their most recent match, they fell 2-0 to Brighton & Hove Albion. Before the Seagulls won the game in the dying minutes, Bournemouth had chances to score but failed to do so.
