Leicester City host Sporting Braga in the Europa League on Thursday night.

The Foxes have taken maximum points from their two games so far - as have their opponents, while the teams also have equal goals scored and conceded to leave them directly level.

This game, plus the return fixture after the international break, will likely determine the eventual order of progression, where head-to-head results could prove pivotal.

Leicester won against Leeds on Monday night domestically, while Braga beat Famalicao in the Primeira Liga.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the game.

When is the game?

The match kicks off at 8pm on Thursday, 5 November at King Power Stadium.

Where can I watch it?

The game will be shown live on BT Sport 1. Subscribers can also stream the match via the BT Sport app and website.

What is the team news?

Ricardo Pereira, Caglar Soyuncu, Wilf Ndidi and Daniel Amartey are all out injured for the Foxes. Islam Slimani is not part of the European squad and Jonny Evans is a doubt.

Rui Fonte is likely to be the only absentee for Braga.

Predicted line-ups

Leicester: Schmeichel; Fofana, Evans, Fuchs; Albrighton, Tielemans, Choudhury, Thomas; Maddison, Under; Vardy.

Braga: Matheus; Viana, Carmo, Silva; Esgaio, Fransergio, Castro, Sequeira; Horta, Gaitan; Paulinho.

Odds

Leicester - 9/11

Draw - 14/5

Braga - 15/4

Prediction

Leicester have impressed with their attacking play of late and the Cengiz Under - Jamie Vardy link-up is progressing nicely. 1-0 to the Foxes
