Stumbling squad Swansea City AFC (3-6-5, 14 points) is scheduled to host top contenders Leicester City (8-1-5, 29 points) at their own Liberty Stadium this Saturday as the 2015-2016 Premier League season moves forward.

Swansea had not won in its last four matches and had been winless in 10 of the last 11, which dropped them to 15th place in the current league table.

The Swans last match was a sorry 0-1 loss to Liverpool at the Anfield last Sunday, as reported by Sports Mole.

Garry Monk's boys were not able to score a single goal in the whole match while surrendering one to the Reds via a penalty kick from Liverpool vice-captain James Milner two minutes after the hour mark.

Meanwhile, Leicester City had already given up its brief grip of league leadership as the team settled for a 1-1 draw with fellow powerhouse squad Manchester United at the King Power Stadium last Saturday, as per Daily Mail Online.

Sensational striker Jamie Vardy scored at the 24th minute to put the Foxes early on top, but at the same time set a new record with a goal in his 11th consecutive Premier League game. Vardy's goal beat that of Ruud van Nistelrooy's record of consecutive goals in 10 straight English top-flight matches.

However, the celebration was short-lived, much like their place at the summit of the league table, after Bastian Schweinsteiger equalized the game right before the halftime break.

The predicted result is a 2-0 triumph for Leicester City. Claudio Ranieri's boys continue their dream season and undefeated streak with an easy win over the Swans.

Swansea City starting lineup (4-2-3-1 formation): Fabianski; Naughton, Williams, Bartley, Taylor; Sung-yueng, Sigurdsson; Ayew, Britton, Routledge; Eder

Leicester City starting lineup (4-4-2 formation): Schmeichel; Fuchs, Huth, Morgan, Simpson; Drinkwater, Kanté, Albrighton, Mahrez; Vardy, Okazaki
