Since the arrival of Ruud van Nistelrooy, Leicester have allowed a concerning 73 shots on goal, an unsustainable trend over the past three games.
Currently in 17th place, Leicester saw Everton, Crystal Palace, and West Ham all pick up points last weekend, whilst the Foxes fell to a 4-0 defeat away at Newcastle.
Wolves enter this weekend having grabbed the headlines for all the wrong reasons last time out. Not just for their late collapse against Ipswich, but also for the unsavoury scenes that followed the final whistle, and subsequent sacking of Gary O'Neil the next day.
Scuffles erpupted on the pitch for the second consecutive game with Wolves players involved. This resulted in a red card for Rayan Air-Nouri and a potential FA ban for talisman Matheus Cunha, pending confirmation.
Wolves have since turned to 56-year-old Vitor Pereira, with the Portuguese coach taking the reigns this week. Pereira will be hoping that his new side can end a miserable run of four consecutive defeats, three of which came against rivals currently in the bottom seven of the Premier League.
Team News
The fitness of goakpeer Mads Hermansen is still uncertain after being forced off at halftime last time out against Newcastle. Whilst Harry Winks and Boubakary Soumare have been declared as fit and ready for this weekends clash.
Wilfred Ndidi remains in recovery, with an estimated time of his return not being given, and Odsonne Edouard remains a doubt as he continues to recover from a recent setback,
Facundo Buonanotte however, should return to the starting XI after being limited to an appearance off the bench on the road against Newcastle.
Regarding Wolves, new boss Pereira is expected to deploy a back three, a setup used by the coach at his previoius club, Al-Shabab.
Rayan Ait-Nouri will be suspended after his red card following the final whistle last weekend, whilst Matheus Cunha will be available for the trip whilst his FA investigation continues.
Joao Gomes returns from suspension, while Pablo Sarabia and Boubacar Traore remain sidelined due to injury. Jose Sa could remain out of the starting XI after recent poor form, despite recovering from a shoulder issue.
Likely lineups
Leicester (4-2-3-1): Ward; Justin, Vestergaard, Coady, Kristiansen; Soumare, Skipp; McAteer, Buonanotte, El Khannouss; Vardy.
Wolves: (3-4-3): Johnstone; Semedo, Bueno, Toti; Doherty, Andre, Joao Gomes, Rodrigo Gomes; Cunha, Guedes, Strand Larsen.
Key players
Leicester - Jamie Vardy
Scoring in two of Leicester's three games since the arrival of Ruud van Nistelrooy, the argument is there to be made that Leicester continue to be all-too reliant on their 38-year-old forward.
Despite his age, Vardy is continuing to deliver in the final third for the Foxes, finding the back of the net six times, and assisting three times in the Premier League this season. Wearing the captains armband, Vardy remains to be an important cog in the machine at the King Power Stadium.
Wolves - Matheus Cunha
Despite recent conversations about a potential ban following his actions after last weeks fixture against Ipswich, Matheus Cunha is undoubtedly the man Wolves look to for inspiration in the final third.
Cunha has scored eight times in the Premier League this campaign, providing three assists. And despite a recent drop in form alongside that of Wolves as a whole, Cunha will be crucial if Wolves are to get three points from their trip across the Midlands.
