Birmingham v Leicester predictionsWayne Rooney has won only two of his first ten matches as Birmingham manager and his side are 5-1 shots to claim maximum points at home to Championship leaders Leicester.
The Foxes have made a sensational start to life under Enzo Maresca, winning 17 of their first 21 second-tier games after last season's relegation from the Premier League. Ipswich's 2-2 derby draw with Norwich means Leicester would go three points clear at the top if they beat Birmingham and, more significantly, victory would leave them 13 points above third-placed Leeds. While Maresca's men are 1-10 to earn automatic promotion this season, Rooney's Blues are six points above the relegation zone despite having taken ten points from their first four games under previous boss John Eustace. They claimed a much-needed 1-0 victory at Cardiff last week but their last home game was a goalless stalemate against bottom club Rotherham, who hit the woodwork and had four shots on target to Birmingham's three.
Leicester-Aston Villa live stream: How to watch EPL game online, on TVLeicester City suddenly find themselves in a race for UEFA Champions League qualification. After spending much of the season second in the table, the third-place Foxes have been lapped by defending champion Manchester City and enter Monday's match against Aston Villa just two points clear of fourth-place Chelsea and five points clear of fifth-place Manchester United. A home match against a club in the relegation places could be just what the doctor ordered, and Leicester aren't yet in any real danger of missing out on Europe next season.
The home defence can expect a far tougher time against Leicester, who are averaging 2. 1 goals per game away from home this term. A knee injury means Jamie Vardy is unavailable against Rooney's Birmingham, to the disappointment of gossipmongers hoping for a sequel to last year's 'Wagatha Christie' libel case involving the Vardy and Rooney households. However, striker Kelechi Iheanacho is back, competing for a place up front with Patson Daka, who scored in his first two starts of the season against Plymouth and Millwall.

Yet Manchester City's ban from European competition is under appeal, and United and Chelsea's surges might have Brendan Rodgers sweating from Leicester's dugout. He won't be sweating as much as Dean Smith, whose Villa side enter Monday's match in 19th place. The Villans have two matches in hand and are two points from safety, but the danger of yo-yoing back into the Championship is very real in Birmingham. Villa already drew Leicester at the King Power Stadium in the Carabao Cup in January, and replicating that result could prove critical in avoiding relegation.
