The final fixture to be played in the English Premier League on the 15th of April is between Manchester City and Leicester City.

The match will be played at the Etihad Stadium and the hosts are currently second in the table on 67 points while the visitors are in 19th place on 25 points.

Manchester City come into the game on the back of an excellent 3-0 home win over Bayern Munich in the Champions League quarter-final first leg on Tuesday night.

Pep Guardiola’s team opened the scoring in the 27th minute and despite having a couple of scares they doubled their lead in the 70th minute. Manchester City added a third goal just 6 minutes later and have a commanding lead to take to Germany next week.

The win over Bayern Munich means Manchester City have won each of their last 9 fixtures in all competitions. There have been wins over Bournemouth, Crystal Palace, and Southampton away plus Newcastle United and Liverpool at home in the Premier League.

Manchester City have beat Bristol City and Burnley in the FA Cup plus RB Leipzig at home in the Champions League.

Trends show Manchester City have not been beaten in 52 of their 57 most recent matches in the Premier League. They have won each of their last 5 home league games and have scored 3 or more goals in 4 of those 5 matches.

Leicester City make the trip to the Emirates Stadium on the back of a disappointing 1-0 loss at home against relegation rivals Bournemouth last week. The only goal of the game was scored in the 40th minute following a mistake by Leicester City.

The defeat to Bournemouth means Leicester City have failed to win any of their 9 most recent fixtures in all competitions.

They have lost 8 of those 9 games and there have been defeats at home against Arsenal, Chelsea, Aston Villa, and Bournemouth plus Manchester United, Southampton, and Crystal Palace in the Premier League.

Away form in the league shows Leicester City have failed to win any of their last 4 matches and they have won only 1 of their last 7 Premier League games on the road. Leicester City have scored only 2 goals in their 4 most recent away Premier League fixtures.

Team news and Manchester City continue without Phil Foden who has appendicitis. There could be some changes from the win on Tuesday with Aymeric Laporte. Kyle Walker, Kalvin Phillips, Riyad Mahrez, and Julian Alvarez coming into the team.

Leicester City are without suspended central defender Jannik Vestergaard. Harvey Barnes, Youri Tielemans, and Ryan Bertrand are all doubts.

Manchester City are flying right now whereas Leicester City have been extremely poor in recent weeks.

There appears to be only one winner in this game and we expect to see Manchester City to come out on top, scoring at least 3 goals in the process.
