Sports Mole previews Tuesday's Championship clash between Leicester City and Middlesbrough, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

Leicester City will look to end a run of four games without a win when they welcome high-flying Middlesbrough to the King Power Stadium on Tuesday night. 

The Foxes fell to a 2-0 defeat against Blackburn Rovers last time out, while Boro were convincingly beaten 3-0 away at Watford. 

Match preview

Since their relegation from the Premier League last season, Leicester City have found life in the Championship challenging, recording four wins, five draws and four defeats from their opening 13 matches. 

Sitting 14th in the table on 17 points, they would have expected to be positioned much higher given the quality within their squad. 

Their most recent defeat saw taunts directed towards Marti Cifuentes, highlighting the pressure he is currently under. 

Across September and October, Leicester collected just eight points from eight matches, leaving them five points adrift of the playoff places. 

By the time their next game comes around, it will be exactly a month since their last win, underlining the urgency to get back on track as soon as possible. 

As for Middlesbrough,...
