Leicester City prepare to entertain Blackpool at Walkers Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Foxes are clearly on top, winning 53.33% of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Walkers Stadium was two seasons ago, in September 2005, the Foxes carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a League Cup match.

Recent respective form guides
Leicester City's disastrous home run has meant they have managed only 2 draws from the last six matches. While Foxes have scored 6, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.
Blackpool's away form is none too clever either, with a marvellous return of five wins and one defeat from the last six. Those games have seen the Seasiders pummel 14 goals, and let in 6.
