Match Facts
Leicester have won their last three league games against Birmingham and are unbeaten in six such matches (W4 D2) since a 2-0 defeat in October 2011.
This is Birmingham City’s first league visit to Leicester City since August 2013, losing 3-2 under Lee Clark.
Leicester’s 3-1 win over Norwich last time out was their 27th league victory of the season, only registering more in a single campaign in the Football League in 2013-14 (31).
Birmingham beat Preston 1-0 at home last time out and could record successive league wins for the first time since February. Indeed, only Rotherham (83%) have earned a higher share of their points at home in the Championship this season than the Blues (71% - 30/42).
Leicester have scored 10 goals from high turnovers in the Championship this season – the most of any side - while only Blackburn (363) have faced more high turnovers in the competition in 2023-24 than Birmingham (362).
