In this upcoming League One clash, Leicester City will face Plymouth Argyle at the King Power Stadium. As the teams gear up for this match on September 1, 2026, Leicester will be looking to climb out of the relegation zone, while Plymouth hopes to secure a better position in the mid-table rankings.
Team form
Leicester
Leicester has struggled this season, sitting at #20 in the standings with only 2 points from their first three matches. They have drawn two times but have yet to secure a win, contributing to a poor start with their last match ending in a 0-0 draw against Milton Keynes Dons. Historically, Leicester has struggled to find the back of the net, averaging just 0.67 goals per game while conceding 1.00, highlighting their difficulties both offensively and defensively. The team tends to play in a 4-1-4-1 formation, which should provide some defensive stability while allowing the midfielders to support the attack.
Plymouth
Plymouth Argyle currently sits at #11 with 4 points. They have had a balanced start to their season, securing one win, one draw, and one loss. Their latest performance was particularly strong, achieving a 2-0 victory against Bradford. With a league average of 1.33 goals scored and conceded per game, Plymouth has shown they can keep pace in attacking positions as demonstrated in previous matches, scoring four goals in their last five games. Utilizing a 4-4-2 formation, Plymouth emphasizes wing play and relies on their forward pairing to result in positive outcomes.
Head-to-head
There are no historical matchups available between Leicester and Plymouth in recent times, so this fixture brings an element of unpredictability, as each side has its current strategies and player conditions to consider.
Key factors
Leicester's home advantage might play a role; however, their struggles in goal-scoring and general performance down the table could limit their impact in this matchup. In contrast, Plymouth looks more cohesive and confident, benefiting from a recent win and slightly higher offensive production. Watch how each team's formation influences they try to control possession and push forward — Leicester's midfield configuration will be essential against a hardworking Plymouth side that has shown flashes of attacking potential.
Prediction
Given the current trends in form, with Leicester's struggles contrasted against Plymouth's competitive nature, it seems probable that the away team will manage to take advantage of Leicester's shortcomings. The expected goals analysis suggests that Leicester may manage fewer chances, while Plymouth is likely to capitalize on their scoring opportunities.
Consequently, Plymouth is favored to secure an away victory, possibly resulting in a closely contested match. Leicester will need to turn things around quickly to avoid falling further into the relegation zone.
