Borrell said: “Pre-season has been a good building process and we have taken that into the season. But now we have to take it into the next match.
“Leicester won 4-3 in their first game and we know it will be another difficult game. They played Fulham in pre-season and they won 3-1. They are another strong team with some good qualities.”
