Leicester City legend Marc Albrighton has clearly told what Wrexham need to do to beat the Foxes tonight.
Tonight’s Championship matchday 28 sees Wrexham play host to Leicester City. It’s the third home game in a row for Phil Parkinson’s men where the big challenge would be to seal the three points in the bag within regulation time.
Both against Nottingham Forest and Norwich City, the Reds appeared sluggish in the second half and conceded a ton of goals. That mistake can’t be afforded tonight vs Leicester City who are already going through an unpredictable season, in terms of results.
The Foxes started the campaign well, perfectly giving the impression why they lifted the Championship title two years ago under former boss Enzo Maresca. However, since them Leicester City are caught in an alternate cycle of winning and losing games.
Their current form is L-W-L-W-L meaning Wrexham have a losing forecast on their table. The Reds have already created 3 miserable Leicester City records in the past and losing tonight will be the worst thing they would want.
Leicester City legend highlights Foxes weakness
Inspite of that, Wrexham’s task to defeat Leicester City at home could turn out to be a cakewalk should they listen to Foxes legend Marc Albrighton. Like other club legends, Albrighton regularly keeps up with everything regarding Leicester City from the good, the bad and the areas that can be improved.

Plus, Albrighton hailed from that history-making Leicester City team that defied all expectations to win the Premier League in 2016. Hence, it’s easy to estimate that the Englishman won’t be proud of his former club’s current state.
While finding the root cause of Leicester’s current weaknesses, Albrighton spoke to Sky Sports: “You can go a run without a clean sheet, but I think when it starts to get to 20-21 games, there’s a major problem there that isn’t being fully addressed.”
How can Wrexham beat Leicester City tonight?
As hinted by Marc Albrighton, Leicester City’s biggest headache is maintaining a clean sheet in the league. On the other hand, Wrexham have a more stable Championship defence at the moment.
But the biggest upper hand with Wrexham is their attacking firepower. In terms of scoring goals, the Reds attack can easily outdo the Foxes unless and until they keep wasting great scoring chances like they did in the reverse fixture in Leicester.

Back then, Wrexham had multiple golden opportunities to grab an early lead with star striker Kieffer Moore missing an easy volley from close range. Just minutes later, Phil Parkinson’s men had another chance to make it 1-0 however, Lewis O’Brien pulled his worst 1v1 miss of this season.
The 27 year old does keep scoring every now and then, but whenever an easy chance falls to LOB Wrexham fans feel more anxious than excited. In that away game vs Leicester, Wrexham paid a heavy price for those 2 early misses and had to stay content with a single point.
Considering that the Red Dragons have already stumbled against Norwich City, a second winless outcome can dent the promotion momentum building up at the Racecourse over the past few weeks. Let’s see how it goes for Wrexham over tonight’s 90 minutes.
