Top contending squad Leicester City (2-0-2, 8 points) will host struggling team Aston Villa (1-2-1, 4 points) at the King Power Stadium in Leicester for a 2015-2016 Premier League week 5 match on Sunday, September 13.
Both teams are coming off surprising drawn games as they were up against lowly opponents during the fourth week of competitions.
The Foxes settled for a 1-1 draw versus newly-promoted Bournemouth AFC on August 29 at the Vitality Stadium as resident striker Jamie Vardy converted a penalty kick to save the point for Claudio Ranieri at the 86th minute after being down 0-1 for most of the game, as per SkySports.
Boscombe was aiming for a second straight victory as forward Callum Wilson found the back of the net at the 24th but it was foiled by Vardy.
Meanwhile, the Villans was forced into a 2-2 deadlock in their last game by current cellar-dweller Sunderland AFC at the Villa Park.
Midfielder Scott Sinclair scored a double to cancel out Yann M'Vila and Jeremain Lens' points for the Black Cats.
After M'Vila opened the scoring with a free kick at the 8th-minute, Sinclair immediately answered with a penalty kick three minutes later to equalize the count. The 26-year-old Englishman then tapped a second one before the halftime break before Lens tied it in the second half, as reported by BBC Sport.
This match would be a close one as both teams try to improve their position in the overall standings.
The predicted result is a tough 2-1 win for Leicester City.
Leicester City starting lineup (4-1-4-1 formation): Schmeichel; Schlupp, Morgan, Huth, de Laet; Kanté; Mahrez, King, Drinkwater, Albrighton; Vardy
Aston Villa starting lineup (4-3-3 formation): Guzan; Clark, Amavi, Hutton, Richards; Westwood, Gueye, Sánchez; Bacuna, Sinclair, Gestede
