So after a morale boosting victory over Peterborough, I visited a Leicester team sat 20th after the first 2 games, only below me on goal difference.
I lined up like this for what already felt like a must win game:

So I made a few changes to the line up with me opting for a more attack minded approach

Start of the season went badly
Away to Man Utd resulted in a very one sided 3-0 defeat for ourselves.

1st preseason game Vs AAB (A) Won 3-1
I was hopeful of a good result but mindful that as it was early on and some players weren’t used to being in these positions that it may be a struggle.
So in the end a comfortable(ish) win with Hojbjerg coming...
