Our prediction for this FA Cup match:
King Power Stadium will host Saturday’s FA Cup game between Leicester City and Watford, the two Premier League sides. The Foxes aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Liverpool, and they must be high on spirits ahead of the visit of Watford. However, home win should not be considered as Brendan Rodgers has a number of selection worries. Kelechi Iheanacho is on international duty with Nigeria, while both Patson Daka and Jamie Vardy are sidelined with injuries.
Midfielder James Maddison should be fit for the FA Cup clash. The Hornets, on the other hand, suffered an unlucky loss to Tottenham at the weekend, with Sanchez scoring the winner for Spurs in the stoppage time. Watford winger Ismaila Sarr remains in the recovery room, but given the number of absentees in the home team, the share of spoils is on the horizon.
Highlighted Player (Jamie Vardy):
Spending his early career playing no-league football, Jamie Vardy made the headlines when he joined Leicester City in a £1 million deal in 2012, but little did he know that he would go on to become a genuine Premier League star just three years later.
The experienced forward helped the Foxes gain promotion to the elite division and then score more than 20 goals as they mounted an unlikely title bid, earning worldwide acclaim as well as a place in the England squad. Vardy went on to score his first two goals for the Three Lions in March 2016 friendlies, with his back-heel goal against Germany in Berlin seeing him instantly become a fans’ favourite.
Over the years, Vardy has earned a reputation as a striker who never gives up and can be a real menace for opposition defenders, but his excellent goalscoring record and good link-up play are enough to suggest he can be described as a mix of old-style pacey forwards and modern strikers.
Highlighted Team (Watford):
Watford FC is an English football club founded in 1881 and is playing its home games in the Vicarage Road which holds a capacity of 21 000 seats. Watford managed to promote to the Premier League in 2014/2015 after playing for 8 years in lower football divisions.
