Looking to bounce back quickly from a 3-1 reverse to Liverpool on Boxing Day, in which Jordan Ayew got on the scoresheet at Anfield, attention now returns to Sunday's match-up against the current champions. Understanding the enormity of the task ahead of them, the English centre-half stated that the Foxes must learn from their defeat on Merseyside, take the positives and move on to the next opponent.

"It's another tough game and we all understand that," Coady stated. "The quality that Man City have is great, even though they aren't getting the results at the moment. "We want to improve and get better. I thought in spells we were good [against Liverpool] but the result is disappointing for us, but we need to put it to bed and move on as quickly as we can.
"They (Man City) are a world class team and we're preparing to face a world class team, it's as simple as that. We know their manager and we've looked at their strengths and weaknesses and trying to counteract that."
This time around, Leicester will have the advantage of a home crowd and City's No.4 is hoping that the Foxes faithful will be out in their numbers once again to support them in a final outing of 2024, after skippering the side on Boxing Day.

He added: "We know how big it is and it's in front of our home supporters as well but we need to be at 100 per cent.
"Every game is a good opportunity. We know we have quality in the team and that we need to pick up points so you need to make sure you're ready, so we'll recover and make sure we are.
"We're always looking forward to playing at King Power Stadium, and we know we need to be at our best to get them at their best. They'll be there again on Sunday and we'll be ready.
"I'm enjoying being in the team and and I've always said I'll be there for whenever I'm needed. I love playing football and being part of this Club so when the opportunities come, I'll be ready. It was a proud moment to be captain tonight and I enjoy having that responsibility."
