| Leicester vs West Ham battle of relegation. |
The match between Leicester City and West Ham United, both of whom are fighting relegation, will be contested as part of the last round of games for the 2022–23 English Premier League season on May 28.
At the start of the weekend, the home team was in 18th place with 31 points, while the opponents were in 14th place with 40 points. The game will be contested at King Power Stadium.
Leicester City enters the contest having held Newcastle United to a 0-0 draw on Monday night at St. James' Park. They did not move away from the danger zone of relegation with the draw, but their strong defensive play has provided them with an opportunity to stay ahead through the last day of the current campaign.
Leicester City has gone unbeaten in four of their previous six games, all of which consisted of games contested in the Premier League, thanks to the draw against Newcastle United.
A 2-1 win against Wolverhampton Wanderers at home and three draws—against Leeds United, Newcastle United, and Everton—were also recorded. The lone loss was against Liverpool at home.
According to developments, Leicester City has only won three times in their last 22 Premier League games. The Foxes have lost two of their previous three home Premier League games, but they have let up goals in every single one of their last 12 league encounters at home.
West Ham United travel to the King Power Stadium after defeating Leeds United 3-1 at home the previous weekend in the Premier League.
West Ham conceded a goal in the 17th minute, drew even in the 32nd, and then seized the lead with 18 minutes remaining. West Ham scored an additional goal at the very end of the game as Leeds United desperately tried to get an equaliser.
With the victory against Leeds United, West Ham have won four of their previous five games overall. In addition to triumphs at home against Manchester United and Leeds United in the Premier League, there have been triumphs both at home and away against AZ Alkmaar in the Europa League.
Premier League away records indicate West Ham has lost its previous three games. In their previous 26 away Premier League games, the Hammers have only won four times, a dismal record.
According to the team announcement and Leicester City's probable starting lineup for this match, James Madison and Harvey Barnes will both be recalled. Ricardo Pereira, Alar Söyüncü, and Ryan Bertrand may not be fully healthy, while James Justin, Danny Ward, and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall are all sidelined.
Only one player for West Ham is sidelined due to injury, and that player is striker Gianluca Scamacca. With the Europa League to play, David Moyes could be persuaded to alter the order of his starting eleven.
The forthcoming European final for West Ham might work in Leicester City's favour. Since West Ham has a bad road record and has been distracted, the Foxes, who have recently shown signs of progress, might win this game.
