Olabade Aluko, Leicester City's defender, earned an 8.1 rating as the Foxes edged Bristol Rovers 2-1 in a Club Friendly, setting up a meeting with Burton Albion on July 18th. Leicester controlled the early stages but were pegged back before half-time in an open contest.

Kirsten Otchere gave Leicester a fourth-minute lead, but Bristol Rovers struck back just before the break when Shaqai Forde set up Ellis Harrison to level in the 40th minute. The visitors reclaimed control after the interval, Nathaniel Opoku scoring the decisive goal in the 64th minute to settle the friendly.

Leicester dominated possession with 74% to Bristol Rovers' 26%, though the home side matched them with 19 shots to 18 and forced eight corners to three. The second half told a clearer story: Leicester had 71% possession and 14 shots to Bristol Rovers' 11, outplaying the hosts on the ball. Aluko was the standout with an 8.1 rating from his defensive position, anchoring a backline that limited clear chances despite the shot count. CheckLive's model clearly favoured Bristol Rovers but got the result wrong, as Leicester's efficiency with the ball proved decisive. Next up is a clash with Burton Albion on July 18th.
