Wayne Rooney’s Absence Adds Intrigue to Leicester vs Birmingham Clash

Jamie Vardy’s Injury Keeps Him Out of Leicester’s Clash with Birmingham

Leicester City will be without their star striker Jamie Vardy for their upcoming match against Birmingham. Vardy is still recovering from a knee injury, which means he will miss the game and dampen the potential drama surrounding the clash between his wife Rebecca and Coleen Rooney, the wife of Birmingham manager Wayne Rooney.

Focus on Football as Soap Opera Subplot Takes a Backseat

The absence of Jamie Vardy means that the football itself will take center stage in this match. Fans can now concentrate on the performance of the two clubs, with Leicester aiming to extend their lead at the top of the table and Birmingham desperate for a win to distance themselves from the relegation zone.

Birmingham Looks to Build on Recent Victory

Birmingham will be looking to build on their recent 1-0 win against Cardiff. The victory marked their first away win under manager Wayne Rooney and helped them climb to 16th in the Championship table. A win against Leicester would further solidify their position and provide much-needed momentum.

Leicester Aims for Another Victory

Leicester City, currently leading the Championship table, will be aiming for another win against Birmingham. Despite a less-than-stellar performance in their previous match against Millwall, where they won 3-2, the Foxes have been dominant this season. They have won 17 times and are favored to make it 18 with odds of 3/5. Betting on them to lead at halftime and full time is also a viable option at 6/4.
