Sevilla Game Could Turn Leicester's Season Around, That's What Ranieri Thinks
Claudio Ranieri Believes his side's first leg tie with Sevilla in Spain could prove to be a turning point in the foxes' season.
Leicester City who were crowned England champions nine months ago are living dangerously in the Premier League and are just a point above the relegation zone. However they have won four out of their six games in Europe.
"This game could be everything," said Ranieri
"If we win, something could change. We need one match like this."
"We know in our mind that we are the underdog," Ranieri added.
Of course Leicester are underdogs because this is their first ever Champions League outing and they travel to a Sevilla side that has lost just twice at home all season (to Barcelona and Juventus).
Leicester City will be without star striker Islam Slimani who is struggling with a groin injury, his European experience could have been handy.
Shinji Okazaki is set to partner Jamie Vardy upfront.
