LEICESTER v PORTO BETTING PREVIEW
Leicester opened their Champions League campaign with a bang, as they defeated Club Brugge 0-3 on the road. Anyway, the Foxes go into this match on a real low after a 4-1 humbling at Manchester United this past weekend. Priot to that, they were knocked-out by Chelsea in the EFL Cup (2-4 after extra-time), beat 3-0 Burnley after being hammered 4-1 by Liverpool.Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez were replaced at half time on Saturday as Claudio Ranieri decided to rest them for this match. Shinji Okazaki could return to the side at the expense of club-record signing Islam Slimani, while Andy King may also profit from a poor performance at the weekend from Daniel Amartey. Kasper Schmeichel is a major doubt, while Matty James and Nempalis Mendy are out through injury.
Porto ousted Italian giants Roma in the play-offs to reach the group stage and kicked off the Champions League with a stalemate at home against FC Copenhagen. The Dragoes have only lost one game all season and enter this match on the back of a 3-1 victory over Boavista last Friday. Anyway, they recorded a goalles draw against Tondela in their last away match.
The Portuguese outfit travel to Leicester with a relatively full strength squad as Maxi Pereira is their only real injury concern. Otavio, Andre Silva and Jesus Corona are expected to start up front while Hector Herrera, Danilo Pereira and Oliver Torres are likely to play in the middle of the park.
