THE PREDICTION
A feisty East Midlands derby sees Leicester make the short journey to the City Ground where they’ll face a Nottingham Forest side, who have already knocked Arsenal out of this season’s FA Cup on the same ground. Steve Cooper and his squad will be eying up another Premier League scalp here and Leicester will have to be at their best. Although the FA Cup holders are heavily depleted through injuries, the Foxes boast significant strength-in-depth within their squad and Brendan Rodgers will be well aware of the threat Forest pose, particularly when considering their performance against the Gunners last round, not to mention their form in the Championship under Cooper. Although the Premier League side are to be narrowly favoured here, back Leicester to qualify rather than win in 90 minutes as they may well require extra time and even penalties in order to get the job done.
