Warren Ashurst
Leicester have won just six of their 16 home league matches this season
Only Sheffield Wednesday have conceded more goals in the Championship than Leicester
Recommended bet: Draw
It is now eight games without a win for Leicester, who have dropped into the Championship relegation zone ahead of their clash with Norwich on Saturday.
The Foxes have shown signs of improvement under new boss Gary Rowett, collecting back-to-back draws against Stoke and Middlesbrough.
They now face a Norwich team who have won three of their last four matches, but still need a couple more positive results before feeling their place in the second tier is secure.

Team News
Leicester could welcome back both Jordan James and Jamaal Lascelles for Saturday’s early kick-off at the King Power Stadium.
James has been sidelined for six games due to a hamstring injury, while experienced defender Lascelles has missed the last two matches but is now back in training.
Gary Rowett has also revealed that Abdul Fatawu should be available to feature, having come on as a substitute in the midweek draw at the Riverside.
Norwich are expected to be without January addition Mohamed Toure, after he was forced off just six minutes into the win over Sheffield Wednesday.
The Australian international suffered a groin problem against the Owls, with boss Phillipe Clement saying that the first view “was not good”.

Prediction
Two points from their last two games will give Leicester some renewed hope under their new manager, but their home form will be a concern.
They have suffered three straight defeats at the King Power Stadium, with two of those coming against teams around them in the table in Oxford and Charlton.
Norwich are certainly on an upward trajectory under Clement, who only took charge at Carrow Road in mid-November — since then they have won 10 league games.
The Belgian coach will feel another nine points in their remaining matches should be good enough to make sure of their place in the Championship for next season.
A point will see the Canaries move closer to their target and would also extend Leicester’s unbeaten run to three games, with 11 more games to save their season.
