4 months after their last meeting in Premier League, Aston Villa and Leicester City are set to clash again. In their last encounter, Aston Villa secured a 1-2 win. Aston Villa head into this game after their recent draw with Brighton on December 30 in the Premier League. Having conceded goals in each of their last five matches, they face a chance to reset and refocus on defensive solidity.

Leicester City are on a troubling run, heading into this match following four back-to-back defeats to Manchester City, Liverpool, Wolves and Newcastle United, leaving them without a victory in their last five outings. Their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have allowed goals in thirteen consecutive matches.

This Premier League clash shines a light on the players who have played crucial roles in creating and converting chances for Aston Villa and Leicester City in this campaign. Ollie Watkins and Morgan Rogers have been pivotal for Aston Villa’s attack, crafted under Unai Emery’s leadership, combining to deliver important goals and assists. Watkins has already scored eight goals in Premier League this season, while Rogers remains their top assist provider in the competition with eight. Supporting them are Jhon Duran, Youri Tielemans and John McGinn, who have also chipped in with important goals and assists, adding depth to Aston Villa’s attack.

Meanwhile, Leicester City’s offensive unit, carefully orchestrated by Ruud van Nistelrooy, has leaned on Jamie Vardy, their main scorer, and Facundo Buonanotte, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. Leicester City’s top scorer in Premier League, Vardy, has six goals this season, with Ndidi leading their creative tally in the league with four assists. Leicester City’s attacking depth is further showcased by Jordan Ayew, Bilal El Khannouss and Stephy Mavididi, who have each made valuable contributions this season.
