Wolves vs Leicester City: TV coverage

Wolves and Leicester City are in action on Sunday, and this is how to learn about the TV coverage.

Wolves and Leicester are fan-favorite sides that are not exactly thriving in the current campaign. Therefore, this game between the two comes at an important time. With the World Cup putting a stall on the season, points going into the tournament are at a premium. That is particularly true for a pair of clubs currently in the relegation zone.

While not necessarily a rivalry, expect fireworks from teams that expect themselves to be fighting for European spots, not staving off the Championship.

This is one of four 9 a.m. kickoffs on Sunday in the Premier League. NBC elected to put this game on USA Network over games like Leeds-Fulham or Southampton-Arsenal. Perhaps it speaks to the potential desperation of both sides.

Prior to the game, Premier League Mornings gets you set for this kickoff, as well as the others throughout the day. Then, Premier League Live follows before the 11:30 a.m. kickoff.

Wolves-Leicester

Last season, both of these clubs finished in the top 10. After struggling, Wolverhampton Wanderers relieved its head coach, Bruno Lage, from his position at Molineux. For Leicester, Brendan Rodgers has been on the chopping block for some time.

This fixture, if it goes the wrong way, could very well spell disaster for Rodgers. Same applies to Wolves. If either of these teams loses, they are firmly entrenched in the relegation battle, even if it is still relatively early in the season.
