Leicester City face a trip to Cardiff City at Cardiff City Stadium on Tuesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Foxes will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in May 2010, with Leicester City inflicting a narrow 2 - 3 defeat upon the Bluebirds in an Football League Play-Offs (Lvl 2) match.
