What has been Leicester City and Manchester City's form ahead of this match?

Leicester City have failed to win any of their three most recent games. The Foxes lost against Tottenham (2-0) and Crystal Palace (1-0), while they were held to a 1-1 draw by Fulham. Claude Puel's men last claimed a win during their match against Watford on December 1, 2018.

Manchester City may have lost their unbeaten form in the EPL, but they are still one of the most in-form teams in Europe. Pep Guardiola's men have won four out of their last five in all competitions, including a 3-1 win against Everton and a 2-1 victory when facing Hoffenheim. Perhaps the only worry for Guardiola may be their defensive woes, as they have not kept a clean sheet in their six most recent games.
