Leicester take on Championship rivals Birmingham City in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Saturday but the league is the priority for both clubs.

The Foxes lead the way in the Championship and have a healthy eight-point lead over Southampton in third. Birmingham sit 20th but they are still eight points above the drop zone, and 11 away from the top six.

Leicester won’t want to leave anything to chance in terms of their promotion bid and they will probably rotate for this game, as they did in the previous round against Millwall.

Birmingham are in a similar position regarding their survival bid and may also rotate, although we should see closer to their best XI for this game.

However, Leicester remain a force at home and even with five or six changes they should still have too much for the visitors. So a home win with a -1 handicap appeals.

The Foxes have already beaten Birmingham once this season, winning 3-2 at St Andrew’s in December.

And have an impressive home record as they have won nine of their last 11 at the King Power, with one draw and one loss.

Four of Leicester’s last five home wins have been by two or more goals and as Birmingham have nine defeats in their last 13 away from home they can win with some room to spare here.
