One week on from a narrow loss to Brighton & Hove Albion, City are back on their travels, this time destined for east London to take on West Ham United at Chigwell Construction Stadium in a 3pm GMT kick-off on Sunday...
The Foxes camp
Six games into the Barclays Women's Super League campaign, and Leicester are sitting eighth in the standings, with five points and just the one win; a 1-0 victory over Everton last time out at home.
Having only managed two goals in that period, partly due to a run of unfortunate injuries, City do boast quite an impressive defensive record, conceding just five times - only the WSL's top four have conceded fewer.
With three tough matches against Manchester United, Manchester City and Chelsea all to follow before the Christmas break, Amandine Miquel will be hoping to turn defence into attack in Dagenham this weekend.
The opposition
Sunday's hosts are second from bottom in the WSL table and yet to record a win this season, with both points coming from draws against Merseyside clubs Liverpool and Everton.
A threat in the air, two of the Hammers' three goals have been scored via headers but they do have the second worst record in the league for expected goals against.
Usually lining up with a back four, Viviane Asseyi and Riko Ueki will be the ones to look out for as Rehanne Skinner hopes to fire her side up the table.
In the dugout
Formerly the manager of Tottenham Hotspur until 2023, this is Rehanne Skinner's second season in charge of West Ham, but she has only overseen five wins in her first 32 games, tallying up to a win percentage of 16 per cent, compared to 39 per cent while at Spurs.
This will, however, be her first meeting with Miquel and heads into her sixth game against Leicester with the knowledge that her side has come out on top on three of those occasions.
Last time out
Both league fixtures ended in a 1-1 draw last season; Honoka Hayashi cancelling out Lena Petermann's strike at King Power Stadium in December, with Sophie Howard scoring the equaliser in Dagenham come May.
The last time that the two teams met was during a pre-season tournament in Perth, with the Foxes running out 5-2 winners. Yuka Momiki, Sam Tierney, Missy Goodwin, Noémie Mouchon and Saori Takarada all scored at HBF Park.
