After a tough start to the campaign, Fulham will host Leicester City in a 2024/25 Premier League clash on Saturday, August 24.
The summer transfer window has been brutal for the Cottagers, who had given a good account of themselves to finish 13th last season. Fulham brought in Emile Smith-Rowe from Arsenal but there are still quite a few gaps the team needs to bridge. Marco Silva's team suffered a 0-1 loss to Manchester United last weekend.
Leicester City managed a 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur in their opening game of the new league season. It was a good result given that manager Enzo Maresca left in the summer and was replaced by Steve Cooper, and the Foxes could face points deduction owing to the club's financial breaches.
