Holloway has not overseen a win since his opening game in charge

City's last victory was in Ian Holloway's first game in charge - last month's 2-0 win against Bristol City.

Despite his team's ill luck of late, Holloway told BBC Radio Leicester: "The league position is where we deserve to be at the moment.

"It doesn't mean that's where we'll end up. None of us want to end up there."

Leicester striker Iain Hume expects a bruising encounter against Phil Brown's Tigers at the KC Stadium.

Hume told BBC Radio Leicester: "They've always been a physical side even when they were in the lower league.

"We've got to go up there and if we can match them on the physical side I'm sure we can come out on top."
