Paul Merson has given his prediction for the upcoming match between Leicester City and Wolverhampton Wanderers on April 22, 2023.
Following their back-to-back victories over Chelsea and Brentford, Julen Lopetegui's team are currently sitting 13th in the domestic table with 34 points and seven points above the relegation-zoned Nottingham Forest.
Meanwhile, the Foxes suffered a 3 - 1 defeat against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium and are standing 19th in the table, facing a survival struggle to secure their place in the domestic campaign.
Ahead of the meeting, the pundit predicted the result of the match, claiming the meeting will end in the ground owners' 2 - 1 victory.
The game is scheduled to take place at the King Power Stadium on Saturday, 15:00 BST.
"Wolves have enjoyed a couple of good results against Chelsea and Brentford, but that could play into Leicester's hands - Wolves have their eyes off the ball. James Maddison is one of Leicester's best players and could make a difference this week.
"If Leicester don't win this game, they'll go into the next two with low confidence and could possibly get relegated. They need to start by winning this game, and I think they'll pull it off this weekend." stated Merson via Sportskeeda.
