Zambian striker Patson Daka is set to take to the field tonight as the Foxes travel to Elland Road to face off against Leeds United in a crucial English Premier League clash. The Zambian forward, who recently got a rare start under new manager Dean Smith, is expected to feature heavily in the game. Daka was impressive in his last outing on the left wing against Wolves, where Smith handed three strikers including Daka starting berths. His performance paid off as the Foxes secured a 2-1 victory, which lifted them out of the relegation zone due to their superior goal difference over Everton. The 24-year-old has made 25 league appearances and 6 cup appearances for Leicester City this season but has only managed to score 4 goals. Since his move to the Foxes, the Kafue native is yet to recapture the form that saw him tear defenses apart in both the Zambian and Austrian leagues. Despite his lack of goals, Daka has shown glimpses of his potential with his pace and ability to create chances for his teammates. He has also proven to be a versatile player, capable of playing in various positions across the forward line. Leicester City will be hoping for a victory against Leeds United in what is expected to be a highly contested relegation scrap match. The Foxes will be counting on Daka to continue his impressive form and make a significant impact in the game. Leeds United, on the other hand, will be looking to bounce back from their disappointing 2-1 loss to Fulham in their last outing. The match is crucial for both teams as they fight to secure their place in the top flight for the upcoming season. The stage is set for an exciting encounter, and all eyes will be on Patson Daka to see if he can make a significant contribution to Leicester City's pursuit of Premier League survival.
