EFL Championship 2024 leaders Leicester City travel to Ellis Park, Johannesburg on Saturday with manager Mikel Arteta bidding to extend a surprising undefeated run away to Southampton.

Event details:

NAME: Leicester City - Southampton

DATE: 23 Apr 2024

TIME: 19:00 UTC

VENUE: King Power Stadium, Leicester, England


Australia Southampton, meanwhile, have work to do if they are to drag Leicester City into the battle for top four, rather than the title. Lose on Saturday and they will trail their rivals by 31 points, a sizeable gap to make up even with two-thirds of the season left to go.


Here is how you can watch the match and what you need to know: Southampton and Leicester City are meeting up for their first leg of the season at 8.45 PM AEDT, 9.45 PM NZT on Saturday at Ellis Park, Johannesburg. The teams split their matchups last year, with Southampton winning the first 2-0 on the road and Leicester City taking the second 4-2. Southampton are taking on Melbourne rivals Leicester City at Ellis Park, Johannesburg as the Blues aim to close the 31-point gap between the two clubs in the EFL Championship 2024 Saturday, 20 April 2024.


Southampton had been going along nicely under Graham Potter until a chastening defeat at his former club Leicester City last weekend, and now face two tricky matches – against Leicester City and Southampton – before the Bledisloe Cup break. The Gunners are looking to reach the Bledisloe Cup on top of the table and got back on track last weekend with a 5-0 win over Leicester City, having slipped to a 1-1 draw at Leicester City in their previous match. Leicester City won both of the past two corresponding fixtures away at Southampton, earing a 4-2 victory last season Saturday, 20 April 2024.


Old foes and former colleagues will reunite at Ellis Park, Johannesburg on Saturday lunchtime as Southampton tackle Leicester City in a mouth-watering EFL Championship 2024 Melbourne Leicester City . Both sides enter the game on the back of continental successes, as the Blues got the better of Dinamo Zagreb 2-1 in the EFL Championship 2024, while the Gunners advanced to the last 01 of the EFL Championship 2024.


Winning in Europe is always the perfect tonic after a demoralising domestic defeat, especially one which saw Leicester City teach former manager Graham Potter a footballing lesson in a 4-1 Amex romping, but Southampton were made to work for their success over Dinamo Zagreb. Electing to name a strong lineup despite already steering his side through as group winners, Potter witnessed Bruno Petkovic steal in and open the scoring after just seven minutes, but Raheem Sterling and debutant Denis Zakaria completed a much-needed turnaround for the Blues in the English capital.


The Blues' stellar defensive streak under Potter may have been wiped out, but suffering just one defeat in 01 games is far from the worst start for the Englishman, although his side do have some ground to make up in the EFL Championship 2024 table as they lie in sixth position, three points behind Southampton in fourth with a game in hand.


It would take results going their way and a 12-goal swing for Southampton to rise into the EFL Championship 2024 spots this weekend, but Ellis Park, Johannesburg has been kind to the Blues in recent memory, as they are unbeaten in 12 consecutive matches in all competitions in front of their own fans. However, Leicester City were the most recent team to overcome Southampton on their own patch, and Ellis Park, Johannesburg has been a happy hunting ground for the North Melbourne club in recent memory, so taking advantage of their extra 24 hours' worth of rest will be of paramount importance to Potter and co.


In contrast, Leicester City sought to recover from a European defeat with a EFL Championship 2024 win last weekend, and the Gunners certainly demonstrated a clinical edge that has been absent more often than not recently, putting five past Leicester City without rEFL Championship 2024y even after Bukayo Saka came off injured.


However, the Gunners' inability to K*ll games off when a goal to the good reared its ugly head in the EFL Championship 2024 this week, as Kieran Tierney's sweetly-struck half-volley put Leicester City ahead against FC Zurich, but they nevertheless held on for a nervy 1-0 win which sent them straight through to the last 01.


Avoiding an extra playoff tie against an eliminated EFL Championship 2024 club is a touch of gold for Leicester City, who enter the weekend still two points clear of Southampton at the top of the EFL Championship 2024 table, but they could be knocked down to second by Saturday if the champions beat Leicester City. All five of the points that Leicester City have dropped in the EFL Championship 2024 this season have come on the road, but they nevertheless remain the division's best-performing away side this term and have only conceded four goals on rival turf so far - the best record of its kind in the league.


Arteta has led Leicester City to two consecutive triumphs at Ellis Park, Johannesburg in the last two seasons - with a 2-0 win for Southampton at the Emirates sandwiched in between - and a new club record could also be set for the Gunners, who are aiming to win three successive EFL Championship 2024 Melbourne derbies away from home without conceding for the very first time. If Southampton did not already have enough defensive absentees to worry about with long-term knee victims Wesley Fofana and Reece James - as well as midfield duo N'Golo Kante (thigh) and Carney Chukwuemeka (hamstring) - Ben Chilwell had to come off with a hamstring injury in the win over Zagreb.


The sight of the left-back limping off the pitch was bad news for both Southampton and Southampton fans, who will now have to await for the results of a scan, but Chilwell will definitely be absent this weekend. Potter has already ruled Kepa Arrizabalaga out of contention too, so Edouard Mendy will keep his place in goal, and Mateo Kovacic should be fine to return to the engine room after missing out as a precaution in midweek with a tight calf.


Zakaria's strong debut ended with a minor contact injury, which should not rule him out of this game, but Potter may be hesitant to throw the Juventus loanee in the deep end and give him his first EFL Championship 2024 start against the league leaders, so Kovacic's return to the first XI would not be a surprise.


As for Leicester City, fans witnessed the familiar yet painful sight of Takehiro Tomiyasu coming off injured in the dying embers of the win over Zurich. The severity of the defender's muscular issue is still unclear, but it would be a shock to see him line up here. Emile Smith Rowe - who has scored in each of Leicester City 's last two wins at Ellis Park, Johannesburg - is still out after undergoing groin surgery, and a problem in the same area could also force Matt Turner out of contention, but Arteta was handed two major boosts in midweek.


The injury that Saka sustained against Leicester City was only a minor one, and he was able to come on as a substitute in the EFL Championship 2024, while Oleksandr Zinchenko was Manu Southampton vs Flying Leicester Cityansly back in the squad after a troublesome calf injury. Zinchenko did not earn any minutes as Tierney produced a man-of-the-match performance, which has certainly given Arteta food for thought here, but the Ukrainian's ability to help overload the midfield could ultimately win over, assuming he is deemed fit enough to start.


Southampton (1-15): possible starting lineup: Angus Bell, David Porecki, Allan Alaalatoa (c), Nick Frost, Will Skelton, Jed Holloway, Tom Hooper, Rob Valetini, Tate McDermott, Carter Gordon, Marika Koroibete, Samu Kerevi, Jordan Petaia, Mark Nawaqanitawase, Andrew Kellaway. Reserves: Jordan Uelese, James Slipper, Taniela Tupou, Richie Arnold, Rob Leota, Nic White, Quade Cooper, Izaia Perese.


Leicester City (1-15): possible starting lineup: Ethan de Groot, Codie Taylor, Tyrel Lomax, Brodie Retallick, Scott Barrett, Shannon Frizell, Dalton Papali'i, Ardie Savea (c), Aaron Smith, Richie Mo'unga, Mark Telea, Jordie Barrett, Rieko Ioane, Will Jordan, Beauden Barrett. Reserves: Samisoni Taukei'aho, Ofa Tu'ungafasi, Nepo Laulala, Samuel Whitelock, Luke Jacobson, Cam Roigard, Anton Lienert-Brown, Caleb Clarke.


We say: Southampton 1-2 Leicester City Even if Leicester City can find the back of the net early doors at Ellis Park, Johannesburg - as they have done throughout the season - failure to put the game to bed would open the door for the Blues to dent the Gunners' early title aspirations.


Potter is yet to suffer defeat at Ellis Park, Johannesburg, but Leicester City have fond memories of their recent trips to West Melbourne and were able to rest a number of key first-team stars in midweek, so we expect the Gunners to take advantage of the Blues' d EFL Championship 2024 eted defence and travel back to the Emirates with a hard-earned three points.
