Claudio Ranieri wary of "strong" Crystal Palace

Leicester City boss Claudio Ranieri expects "strong" Crystal Palace to provide a stern test for his team this weekend.

Leicester City boss Claudio Ranieri has warned his team of the dangers awaiting them when they face Crystal Palace in the Premier League this weekend.

The Foxes have won all three of their Champions League group matches this season - including a 1-0 victory over Copenhagen on Tuesday night - but have only won twice in the league this season, which has left them down in 13th position.

The Premier League champions are unbeaten on home soil this term, but Ranieri is expecting a difficult match against Palace, who will be looking to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to West Ham United last weekend.

"We made a very good match on Tuesday, but now we think of Crystal Palace. They are strong and tall, similar to Copenhagen," Ranieri told reporters.

"Palace are strong at the back and then they have good players at the front. A good team and well organised. We must be clever. I study Crystal Palace from last night, this morning and this afternoon. It's my life, my job and my hobby."

Leicester were 1-0 winners over Palace in both league games during the 2015-16 campaign.
