Leicester City host Wigan Athletic on Tuesday night aiming to move up from 13th place in the League One table. The Foxes have 15 points from 11 games, a record of four wins, three draws and four losses, while their visitors are rooted to the bottom with just seven. They are 10 points behind leaders Huddersfield Town.
Their most recent victory was a convincing 4-0 win at Bromley, where William Thomas-Alves, John Lundstram, Luke Thomas and Emil Riis all found the net. This followed a 2-1 home win over Doncaster on Saturday 17 October and preceded losses to Peterborough and Stevenage earlier in the month.
Riis is the club's top scorer this season with four goals in seven appearances. The team has scored 17 goals this season but has also conceded 17, leaving them with a zero goal difference. They currently sit 10 points behind the division's leaders, Huddersfield Town.
Wigan arrive in desperate need of points themselves, having lost their last two matches to Huddersfield and Oxford United. Their only win in the last five came against Reading. The historical record favours Leicester, who have won the last two meetings between the sides in 2013 and 2020. A 2-2 draw in April 2014 is Wigan's best recent result in this fixture.
The match kicks off at 19:45 local time at the King Power Stadium on Tuesday 27 October. Their current league position of 13th is detailed in the full standings.
