The King Power Stadium is set to host a Championship clash between Leicester City and Birmingham City on August 29, 2025. This match is particularly intriguing as Birmingham City, recently promoted from League One, has had a solid start to the season and sits slightly above Leicester in the standings.

Leicester City, after being relegated from the Premier League last season, is considered a favorite for promotion. Under their new manager, Marti Cifuentes, Leicester still has a number of players from their Championship-winning team of two seasons ago. Birmingham City, managed by Chris Davies, will be looking to extend their unbeaten league run to four games. However, Birmingham City did not fare well against the Foxes two seasons ago, losing three times in league and cup.

For Birmingham City, there are a couple of question marks surrounding the starting XI. Jay Stansfield is doubtful after an ankle injury, potentially leading to Chris Davies replacing him. There's also a decision to be made at left-back, with Alex Cochrane potentially returning to the starting lineup after recovering from an absence.

The game kicks off at 8:00 PM local time. In the USA, the game starts at 3:00 PM ET and will be broadcast on CBS SPORTS. Streaming options include Paramount+ and Amazon Prime Video. Sky Sports Football will broadcast the game live in the UK from 7pm. Sky Sports subscribers can also stream the game via the Sky Go app. Additionally, the match can be watched via NOW with a day or month membership, and NOW is available via TNT Sports. Radio coverage will be available on talkSPORT 2.

Both teams will be aiming to impose their experience and superiority in this match.
