Enzo Maresca, head coach of Leicester, has experienced dealing with consecutive losses despite the team only being defeated six times in the Championship this season. Earlier in the campaign, the Foxes faced two losses in a row but responded by going on an 11-match unbeaten run, showing their strength in the league. Recent defeats to Middlesbrough and Leeds United have left Leicester in a challenging position, with Leeds now only six points behind them in the table. Despite holding a slim six-point lead in the race for automatic promotion, Leicester managed to bounce back with a 1-0 win against Bournemouth in the FA Cup fifth round. This victory has set up a quarter-final clash against Chelsea, bringing the team one step closer to Wembley. The added distraction of the cup competition will fuel Maresca and his players' desire to regain their form in the league.
Leicester City Predicted Lineup
Hermansen; Choudbury, Faes, Doyle, Justin; Pereira, Winks; Mavididi, Dewsbury-Hall, Fatawu; Daka
Queens Park Rangers form
Despite facing a struggling opponent that has been near the relegation zone all season, QPR would not be complacent as they have been the best performing team in that area of the division recently. They have earned 14 points from their last seven matches, with their only loss coming against Stoke City, who are now in the bottom three. QPR managed to defeat Rotherham United 2-1 last weekend, coming from behind to secure the win. Although their upcoming schedule includes tougher matches like the one against West Bromwich Albion, QPR remains confident that they can continue to climb away from the relegation zone in the upcoming weeks.
Queens Park Rangers Predicted Lineup
Begovic; Dunne, Cook, Clarke-Salter, Paal; Hayden, Colback; Willock, Hodge, Chair; Dykes

Due to the difference in league form between the two teams, QPR may see a chance to be the next team to beat the Foxes. Despite this, Maresca's team likely gained confidence from their recent win against Bournemouth, making us believe they will secure a tough home victory.
