CHAMPIONSHIP UPDATE ....
Match: Holle City - Leicester City
The options here seem wrong. The Tigers beat us at Derby County on Friday night, then I wrote...
City have won 7 of their last 10 games, including the last 3, and will need to turn things around tonight following the loan signing of goalkeeper David Stockdale (5-0) from parent club Fulham and the manager's son. Cancelled. Center back Alex Bruce (18-0) picked up a red card and suspension in last week's win over Huddersfield. They have good cover and experience at both positions, goalkeeper Ben Amos has started 17 games for the Tigers this season and he and Dean Jakubovich will be hungry after coming off the bench last month, assuming no losses. The cell. .
At the other end of the pitch for Bruce, Rams defender Jake Buxton (16-2-1) picked up a knee injury against Leeds United, who were also without captain Sean Parker. In his career, Mark O'Brien had beaten the lead to victory on the road against Bristol City, but it was his first start in more than a year. Being fully fit I don't think Buxton will play or be considered this week if he is fit. Forward Jimmy Ward (8-4-5) is out with a long-term injury.
County went an impressive 6-4-1 at Pride Park, but only one of those wins came against a top-ten team and the "victims" averaged 14.17 in the league. City, who have the best away record in the competition, will be the toughest challenge the hosts have faced so far and will have to do so with a questionable central defence. The Tigers were impressive in their recent win over impressive Forest Watford, especially as former opposition manager Sean O'Driscoll was less than impressed with the opposition, "It was a tough game but they were a good team to played good football and it's hard to play. "That's like saying they beat the world!
