Compared to their free-spending rivals, Leicester’s distinctly quiet summer window sticks out like a sore thumb, and the frustrations of Brendan Rodgers were there for all to see when his side went 1-0 down to Man United on deadline day. A first-half winner from Jadon Sancho did the damage on Thursday night as Leicester’s woeful start to the new season continued, and Rodgers appeared to take a swipe at the owners for a lack of incomings, as Wout Faes – one of just two arrivals – helplessly watched on.
Keeping in line with Financial Fair Play regulations is apparently the main factor behind Leicester’s conservative summer approach, but failure to improve the squad has left the Foxes rooted to the bottom of the table with just one point from five games so far. Since being pegged back by Brentford on the opening day of the season, Rodgers has overseen four consecutive defeats with this Leicester side, although their two away defeats so far this term have come to top-four challengers in Chelsea and Arsenal.
Ward; Justin, Faes, Evans, Castagne; Ndidi, Tielemans, Dewsbury-Hall; Maddison; Daka, Barnes
Brighton’s summer transfer activity was certainly highlighted by the outgoings of two integral cogs in Marc Cucurella and Yves Bissouma, but Graham Potter’s side made a bright start to another top-flight season before a trip to Craven Cottage befell them. Aleksandar Mitrovic and a Lewis Dunk own goal put Fulham in cruise control before Brighton threatened a comeback after Alexis Mac Allister’s spot kick.
Nevertheless, a 10-point haul from the opening 15 on offer has seen Brighton make an early charge for the Champions League spots, and the South coast team remains in the top four at the time of writing having conceded a league-low three goals so far. Despite waving goodbye to some of their seemingly irreplaceable players, keeping the much-coveted Potter in the hot seat seems to be a consistent formula for success for Brighton, who were active on transfer deadline day with the signing of Billy Gilmour in a £9m deal from Chelsea.
Sanchez; Veltman, Dunk, Webster; March, Caicedo, Gross, Estupinan; Trossard, Mac Allister; Welbeck
The pressure on Leicester to deliver on the pitch after failing to do so in the summer transfer window could hardly be greater, and their recent record versus Brighton can at least serve to increase the confidence of the traveling fans.
While Brighton is as resilient as ever at home, the defeat to Fulham may have rocked Potter’s squad somewhat, and an altered Foxes attacking line is more than capable of firing the winless visitors to a point on the South coast.
Leicester City 0-2 Brighton, predicted by us.
