BETDISTRICT PREDICTION: City`s away woes, and the fact that this is a cup tie, would normally give Leicester at least a fighting chance here. However, the hosts are playing poorly lately and the visitors should make use of their excellent form, even if Pellegrini will rotate the squad a little bit. Over 2.5 goals and handicap win for City are expected. Leicester City – Manchester City 1-3.
