The Leicester City vs Manchester City live stream features two of the Premier League's top teams, both looking for a top four finish with a win at the King Power Stadium.

This is a much bigger game these days than was the case a few years ago: while Man City are the current Premier League champions and favourites, Leicester regularly challenge for Champions League places and won the title in 2016. This is an equal (or close to equal) matchup.

As if to prove it, it was Leicester who came out on top in the season-opening FA Community Shield final a few weeks ago. Nevertheless, Man City have shown their impressive spending power this summer, most notably with the eye-catching signing of £100 million Jack Grealish.

And after a disappointing loss to Tottenham in their first game, they are back to their best, dispatching Norwich City and Arsenal 5-0 in quick succession, and with FIFA's decision last week not to ban players who had failed to turn up for international duty in South America, Ederson and Gabriel Jesús were eligible to play. Kevin De Bruyne and Phil Foden returned from injury, and both players are on the bench as coach Pep Guardiola opted for an unchanged squad.

Leicester is also in good form with a 2-1 win, but not quite in their stride. They were lucky to beat Norwich 2-1, but they lost 4-1 to West Ham, partly due to Ayoze Perez's red card. [Wesley Fofana, Ricardo Pereira, and Nampalis Mendy are injured, and Perez is suspended. Ryan Bertrand and Jannik Vestergaard return, and the Foxes' defensive crisis finally begins to ease.

Here's the lineup:

Leicester City Schmeichel, Castagne, Soyuncu, Vestergaard, Bertrand, Albrighton, Ndidi, Tielemans, Barnes, Vardy, Maddison

Manchester City Ederson, Walker, Diaz, Laporte, Joao Cancelo, Bernardo Silva, Rodri, Gündoğan, Gabriel Jesus, Torres, Grealish
