Leicester City vs Leeds is a matchup that could ultimately determine who stays up at the end of the 2022 English Premier League season. Leicester have fallen a long way from the highs of 2015/16's title-winning season and FA Cup 2021. Instead, they are fighting for their Premier League survival, entering Thursday's game firmly in the relegation zone. Their recent form has been mixed, with one win, one loss and one draw in their last three Premier League fixtures. Further losses could see manager Brendan Rodgers's career in doubt given the high stakes of staying in the Premier League.

Unfortunately, for Leeds, things are not going much better. Despite currently sitting above Leicester City in the league table, they have not won in their past five matches and are coming off two straight losses. There were signs of life in last week's performance against league-leaders Arsenal, but unfortunately for Leeds, it still ended in zero points. This has been a worrying trend for manager Jesse Marsch's side, who have managed just 11 goals this season.

Will the home side use its superior offense and improving form to get a much-needed three points? Or will Leeds take advantage of a defensively-poor team that has given up the most goals of any team so far this Premier League season? Find out by watching the Leicester vs Leeds live stream.

Today's lineups are:

Leicester (Formation 4-1-4-1): 1 Ward, 27 Castagne, 18 Amartey, 3 Faes, 2 Justin, 42 Soumaré, 26 Praet, 8 Tielemans, 22 Dewsbury-Hall, 7 Barnes, 9 Vardy

Leeds (Formation 4-2-3-1): 1 Meslier, 25 Kristensen, 5 Koch, 14 Llorente, 3 Firpo, 12 Adams, 8 Roca, 10 Summerville, 7 Aaronson, 23 Sinisterra, 9 Bamford
