This week, Leicester City will play again in the Carabao Cup when they travel to Walsall in the west Midlands.

Steve Cooper’s team defeated Tranmere Rovers, a League Two team, 4-0 last month to advance to the third round. They will be hoping that a cup run can spur improved Premier League performance as well.

News about the Leicester City team
On Tuesday night, Cooper is anticipated to ring the changes.

The only other long-term absences are Patson Daka and Jakub Stolarczyk, who are currently sidelined due to injuries.

Despite not having played a single minute in the Premier League, Ricardo Pereira is almost guaranteed to start and captain the team.

In the Foxes’ draw with Everton, Odsonne Edouard made his debut off the bench and might get the opportunity to start at the front of the line.

Having battled for playing time in recent weeks, Luke Thomas, Jannik Vestergaard, Conor Coady, Bobby De-Cordova Reid, and Boubakary Soumare may get an opportunity to establish themselves as members of the starting lineup.

News about the Walsall team
In his team’s victory over Salford City over the weekend, Walsall manager Mat Sadler started an all-star lineup. Given the likelihood of promotion to League One, he may choose to put league form ahead of a cup run.

Rico Browne, who signed with the West Midlanders last week, might make his debut with the Saddlers.

Veteran and journeyman Albert Adomah of the EFL may also play this weekend.

When it comes to scoring goals, Walsall has mostly looked to Nathan Lowe for inspiration.

Lowe, a 19-year-old on loan from Stoke City in the Championship, has four goals in seven games for the Saddlers, and he should be in the running to start on Tuesday.

Leicester City and Walsall have the best EFL Cup run.
The hosts are among just four League Two teams to advance to the Carabao Cup’s third round; this is their first appearance in the competition in 22 years.

They advanced to the semifinals during their greatest stretch in the tournament. Leicester, on the other hand, has a history with the cup, having won it three times.

Predictions for Walsall versus Leicester City
In spite of their challenging beginning to the league season, the Foxes should have a pretty stress-free evening.

This season, Walsall has won five of their five home games in all competitions; nevertheless, this will also be their toughest test.

If Leicester wins, it will offer them a much-needed boost in confidence, and those who have the opportunity know that a good showing might see them push their way into the starting lineup.
