The Foxes are 19th in the table and they have been relegated to the Championship. They are coming into this game on the back of five defeats from the last six league matches. They will look to give the home fans something to cheer about.
On the other hand, Southampton are at the bottom of the league table and they have been relegated as well. They are winless in the last six league matches, and it remains to be seen whether they can pull off an upset away from home. They have picked up just two wins in the league. The Saints will need to perform at a high level to get something out of this contest. Both teams have nothing to play for, and they will look to put on a show for the fans.
The Foxes will be without Abdul Fatawu Issahaku due to a long-term knee injury. Harry Winks remains unavailable due to suspension. Facundo Buonanotte, Bobby De Cordova-Red, Mads Hermansen and Ricardo Pereira picked up knocks against Wolves, and they will miss out as well.
Leicester City are likely to shape up in a 4-2-3-1 formation vs Wolves, with Danny Ward in goal.
James Justin and Victor Kristiansen will start as the full-backs. They will look to keep things tight at the back and hit the Saints on the break. Conor Coady will start in central defence alongside Jannik Vestergaard.
Wilfred Ndidi will start alongside Boubakary Soumare in the midfield pivot, and they will look to break down the opposition’s attacking moves and win the ball back for their side.
Jordan Ayew and Kasey McAteer will start in the wide areas, and they will add pace and flair to the side.
Bilal El Khannouss will start in the attacking midfield role, and he will look to create goalscoring opportunities for his teammates. Jamie Vardy will lead the line for Leicester City.
Probable Lineup (4-2-3-1): Ward; Justin, Vestergaard, Coady, Kristiansen; Ndidi, Soumare; Ayew, El Khannouss, McAteer; Vardy

Yukinari Sugawara and Kyle Walker-Peters will start as the wing-backs. They will look to keep things tight at the back and hit the Foxes on the break.

Leicester City have been quite vulnerable defensively, and they have conceded 14 goals in the last six matches in all competitions. The Southampton attacker could cause all sorts of problems for them at the back. He will look to open up opportunities for his teammates and find the back of the net himself. Leicester will struggle to contain him. Dibling has done quite well in the Premier League this season, and he will look to finish the campaign on a high. He will look to take advantage of Leicester City’s vulnerability and make a defining impact here.
The home side have been toothless in the attack as well, and they have failed to score in five of the last six outings in all competitions. Dibling is undoubtedly the best player on the pitch between the two teams, and he could make a big impact here.
Both teams will be desperate for a victory here, and this is likely to be a close contest. They will look to play for pride, and this is likely to be an entertaining affair. Neither side are in particularly good form, and they could cancel each other out and share the spoils. Both teams are likely to get on the score sheet, but it will be difficult to separate them. A goal-scoring draw seems quite likely here.
