Leicester City will welcome Wigan Athletic to the King Power Stadium on Tuesday in a League One encounter that presents an important opportunity for the hosts to strengthen their position in the standings. Playing in the third tier for the first time since the 2008–09 season following consecutive relegations, Leicester have collected 15 points from 11 matches, recording four wins, three draws and four defeats. Their recent progress suffered a setback on Saturday when they lost 2-1 away to Luton Town, conceding a decisive goal in stoppage time after appearing to secure a draw. Captain John Lundstram was also sent off late in the match and will miss the upcoming fixture through suspension. Manager Russell Martin remains under pressure after several inconsistent performances, making a positive response particularly important. Leicester will hope to take advantage of home conditions and rediscover the attacking confidence they displayed in recent victories, including a convincing 4-0 win
