Leicester City Women prepare for a key Women's Championship fixture against Southampton on Sunday 25 October at the King Power Stadium, needing to arrest a damaging run of four straight defeats. The match kicks off at 3pm local time on 25 October, with the Foxes desperate for a first win in over a month.
Their recent form of two wins and three losses has been overshadowed by the current losing streak, which includes heavy away defeats to Newcastle United and Sunderland. The team's record of two wins and three defeats from its last five league games includes a 4-0 loss at Newcastle United on 27 September and a 3-1 defeat at Sunderland on 4 October.
Recent form and squad context
The sequence of losses began with a 1-0 home defeat to Ipswich Town on 20 September. A 2-0 loss to London City Lionesses in the WSL Cup followed three days later. The most concerning results came in the league, a 4-0 thrashing at Newcastle on 27 September and a 3-1 reverse at Sunderland on 4 October. In that last match, Ale scored a 24th-minute equaliser before the hosts pulled away. The team's recent form over the last five league games reads two wins and three defeats, with the most recent results being a loss to Sunderland and a loss to Newcastle United.
Southampton, who lost 3-1 to West Ham in their last cup outing, are expected to provide a stern test. Their previous lineup featured goalkeeper Santos and forward Brazil.
With nine points separating them from leaders Newcastle, Leicester's immediate focus is on climbing the table. They have scored six goals but conceded ten this season, leaving them with a negative goal difference of minus four. Ending the losing run at the King Power is the immediate and urgent priority.
