History of the Leicester City v Birmingham City fixture

Leicester City are ready to welcome Birmingham City to Walkers Stadium on Tuesday evening, 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.

Leicester City are currently lying in 19th place in Coca-Cola Championship having mustered a points tally of 47 from their 42 matches played. Birmingham C. are just outside the promotion places, in 3rd, having taken 77 points from 42 games.
