By the time they kick off at the Etihad, Man City will have slipped to second should Liverpool beat Leeds United earlier in the day.
Regardless of the result at Anfield, a point will be enough to keep Pep Guardiola’s men at the summit of the table.
The Citizens welcome the Foxes having won each of their last eight matches in the English top-flight; scoring 12 goals without reply in the three most recent outings.
They have also won eight of their last 10 Premier League encounters with Leicester, and are unbeaten in eight at home on Boxing Day.
The Foxes ended a run of four games without a win by putting four goals past a struggling Newcastle United last time out.
And having overseen a 5-2 victory at the Etihad last term, Brendan Rodgers will be eyeing a second successive away success against Guardiola.
