Leicester used to be the worst team in the English top flight earlier in the season, but now they are on a mission to make amends. They are on a good streak of performances at the moment, and they will have the upper hand this weekend against the struggling West Ham.
The Foxes were placed 20th in a table of 20 for quite a long time, and were even considered to be one of the contenders to get relegated at the end of the campaign.
However, they improved quite a lot lately. In fact, they might have won just four times all through the ongoing league campaign, but three of these victories came in the last four match-days. And the only game where they missed out on a win during this stretch was against champions Manchester City.
And note that Pep Guardiola’s men had to make do with a paltry 0-1 win in that fixture.
Anyhow confidence is at a high for the Foxes, and they will be absolutely determined to climb into the top half of the table.
It is to be noted that only one team outside of the top-four has managed to score more goals than them in the PL this time around – and that squad is Liverpool.
The last seven encounters had three or more goals.
The latest match-up ended in a 2-2 draw.
Nine of the former ten clashes at this ground had goals from both teams.
The latest meeting at this venue ended in a 4-1 win for the hosts.

本赛季初，莱斯特城曾是英格兰顶级联赛中最差的球队，但现在他们肩负着弥补的使命。他们目前的表现很好，他们将在本周末与苦苦挣扎的西汉姆联的比赛中占据上风。
在相当长的一段时间里，狐狸在20强联赛中排名第20位，甚至被认为是赛季结束后降级的有力竞争者之一。
然而，他们最近进步了很多。事实上，他们可能在整个联赛中只赢了四场，但其中三场胜利是在最后四个比赛日取得的。在这段时间里，他们唯一一场没有赢球的比赛是对阵冠军曼城。
要注意的是，瓜迪奥拉的球队在那场比赛中只能勉强以0比1取胜。
无论如何，狐狸队的信心是很高的，他们绝对有决心爬上积分榜的上半区。
值得注意的是，在这一次的英超联赛中，除了前四，只有一支球队的进球数超过了他们——那就是利物浦。
最近7场比赛有3个或更多的进球。
最新的一场比赛以2比2战平结束。
在之前的十场比赛中，有九场双方都有进球。
最近一次在这里举行的比赛以东道主4-1获胜告终。
