It would be hard to dream up a tougher first game in charge for an interim boss than a trip to the Etihad to face a Manchester City side trying to hunt down title rivals Arsenal but that is the fate facing Dean Smith this weekend.

The former Aston Villa and Norwich City manager is the man charged with leading Leicester City to safety after being appointed as Brendan Rodgers's replacement until the end of the season.

If Saturday's 1-0 defeat to relegation rivals Bournemouth shows Smith anything, it is the size of the task facing him at the King Power Stadium. The good news is that Leicester are only two points adrift of safety with eight games to play, the bad is that the first of those is against a Man City team in ridiculous form.

Pep Guardiola's side have won nine games on the bounce and scored 24 goals in their last five, including thumping Bayern Munich in the Champions League on Tuesday evening.

The 2021/22 Premier League champions may feel their destiny is back in their own hands after Arsenal's 2-2 draw against Liverpool. They're six points back from the Gunners but have played one game fewer and still have to face them at the Etihad.
