Leicester vs Brighton: How to watch, live stream link, team news (NBC Sports)

Brighton and Hove Albion brings its European pace to King Power Stadium on Saturday when it visits relegation-threatened Leicester City.

Brighton could have staying power in the race for Europe, as this run of Leicester, Bournemouth, Crystal Palace, and Fulham does not see a clearly superior club across from them. Jamie Vardy hasn’t scored since October and James Maddison’s absence has been apparent in almost every contest.

Live action, analysis, and reaction from the King Power Stadium as City look to end a run of four straight Premier League defeats and stop themselves ...

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and James Maddison are both expected to be back in the squad today, the latter likely from the bench after two months without a competitive game. But we've shown the character and quality to turn such form around already this season and I'm confident we can do that again. After four straight defeats, Brendan Rodgers' side are truly in the battle at the bottom.

Out-of-form Leicester City looks to get its Premier League season back on track against a Brighton side oozing confidence of late.

The Seagulls haven’t won at the King Power Stadium since both teams were based in the Championship back in 2014, but Roberto De Zerbi’s revolution has the south-coast side believing they can end the rut following a miraculous run of form. Brighton & Hove Albion can reclaim its place in the Premier League’s top six with at least a share of the spoils in Saturday’s visit to a Leicester City side that’s started 2023 with a limp.

Leicester City Complete The Signing of Victor Kristiansen (Fosse Posse)

Leicester City have signed left-back Victor Kristiansen from Danish side FC Copenhagen for a reported fee of €20 million. The Denmark U21 international is ...

Is this a good signing for the Foxes? The caveat is that Thomas has had many, many more attackers playing for a poor Premier League side as opposed to Kristiansen playing for a top team in the Superliga. Among fullbacks, he ranks in the top 10% in tackles and interceptions and just a little lower in terms of blocks. To my untrained eye (and the other one which has a little more experience), they look very similar and Thomas might just be the superior player. He is the epitome of a “defence-first” fullback. The Denmark U21 international is the Foxes’ first new signing of the January 2023 [transfer window](http://www.sbnation.com/transfer-rumors).

Leicester, Brighton trade comebacks in end-to-end 2-2 draw (NBC Sports)

Leicester were five minutes from handing Brendan Rodgers a much-needed victory, until Evan Ferguson grabbed the equalizer and a point in a 2-2 draw.

Kaoru Mitoma continues to impress for a Brighton side that has so far resisted the urge to cash in on Moises Caicedo and others. Brighton could have staying power in the race for Europe, as this run of Leicester, Bournemouth, Crystal Palace, and Fulham does not see a clearly superior club across from them. Harvey Barnes made it 2-1 to Leicester with a close-range side-volley in the 63rd minute, and that lead held firm for nearly 25 minutes.

Evan Ferguson's late header rescues point for Brighton at Leicester (The Guardian)

An equaliser from Evan Ferguson secured Brighton a 2-2 draw at Leicester, who had led through goals from Marc Albrighton and Harvey Barnes.

“You play at this level you have to have pride with the ball.” “Just disappointing to concede so late on.” “It was important to stop the rot,” Rodgers said. “It seems to be going well at the minute.” “He’s 18 and I have to pay particular attention with him,” said Roberto De Zerbi, the Brighton manager. Though he drilled a late free-kick into the wall, his presence after coming on in the 69th minute appeared to flush home fans with confidence.

TOM COLLOMOSSE AT KING POWER STADIUM: Brendan Rodgers is still looking for his first league win since November as Evan Ferguson's late leveller for Brighton ...

But their brittle defence was again exposed when Ferguson, who had replaced Welbeck, sneaked away from Wout Faes and Daniel Amartey to head in off a post. Look around the Leicester squad for difference-makers and beyond Maddison, they are thin on the ground. Then Gross missed an easy chance and Leicester must have thought their luck was in. The Japan winger was comfortably the best player on show. Rodgers and Khun Top met for lunch at the training ground last week and more signings are expected to follow Danish defender Victor Kristiansen, who should make his debut against Walsall. ‘If you give the ball away cheaply and then you have to go chasing after it and then you’re picking it out the back of the net. After Mitoma’s fine opener, it looked like another long afternoon in store for Leicester. Maddison’s contract expires at the end of next season and there is little chance of him renewing. ‘He hasn’t played for 11 weeks and it was great for us to have that quality,’ said Foxes boss Brendan Rodgers. The players gave everything.’ So when Maddison replaced Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall after 69 minutes, the reaction was telling. We should have won the game.
