History of the Leicester City v Birmingham City fixture

Leicester City are ready to welcome Birmingham City to Walkers Stadium at tea-time on Saturday, looking to continue an impressive record. The Foxes are clearly on top, winning 53.23% of the games played between the two.

The previous match played between the two at Walkers Stadium was more than three years back, in December 2003, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-2 winners in a Premiership match.

Nothing seems to be going right for the Foxes at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Blues come away with an easy victory. Away win
