Leicester City Looking for 3 out of 3

LEICESTER, ENGLAND - SEPTEMBER 27:  Islam Slimani of Leicester City (R) celebrates with team mates as he scores their first goal during the UEFA Champions League Group G match between Leicester City FC and FC Porto at The King Power Stadium on September 2

Leicester City defied all odds to win the Premier League title in 2015/16, but life as champions hasn’t been as smooth sailing as many had envisioned.

The Foxes’ domestic form has been shaky to say the least, although the same can’t be said of their form on the biggest stage of them all for clubs.

Having kicked off their campaign with a hugely impressive 3-0 victory at Club Brugge, Claudio Ranieri’s men backed up their explosive start with a tidy 1-0 triumph over 2004 champions FC Porto.

A third win on the trot would all but guarantee Leicester’s participation in the knockout stages of the Champions League, yet they face stiff competition on Tuesday night in the shape of FC Copenhagen.

The Danish side have chalked up four points from their opening two games and demolished Club Brugge 4-0 last time out.

They’re doing rather well in their native Denmark, too, going unbeaten so far in their Superliga campaign, with eight victories and five draws.

Leicester’s style of play tends to be around inviting pressure before catching teams on the counter-attack, and Copenhagen’s offensive setup could well play into the Foxes’ hands.

However, Leicester haven’t been particularly resolute in defence of late, and they’ll have to buck their ideas up if they’re going to keep up their impressive Champions League clean-sheet record.

Elsewhere, fellow English side Tottenham Hotspur take on Bayer Leverkusen in a must-win encounter in Group E.

Tottenham's players celebrate taking the lead after Manchester City's Serbian defender Aleksandar Kolarov's own goal during the English Premier League football match between Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City at White Hart Lane in London, on October 2,

Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino is expected to recall the in-form Heung-Min Son, who’ll take on his former club at the BayArena and look to get back among the goals.

Real Madrid, meanwhile, are looking to get back to winning ways in the Champions League with a victory over Legia Warsaw.

The Group F minnows have lost two games out of two so far in the competition, and it’s unlikely to get any better for them anytime soon.
